I'm wondering if it is hanging on trying to find net access. Can you try the following: Rename the 'user' folder to x-user-x: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\OpenOffice.org\3\x-user-x [Note: we rename 'user' to 'x-user-x' instead of deleting so that a comparison can be made if the following works.] Check from the task manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del-Task Manager) in both Applications and Processes to make sure that no OOo applications or processes are still running. In Processess, make sure there are no instances of soffice or quickstart running; if so end them. Exit the task manager. Restart OOo from desktop icon: 1. Welcome ==> Next 2. Personal Data ==> uncheck 'Transfer personal data' 3. User name ==> obvious 4. Online Update ==> uncheck 'Check for updates automatically' 5. Registration ==> check 'I do not want to register' Finish See if that makes any difference please. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
