Hi Isabelle,
On the page where you downloaded the software, you should
find a link to download its MD5sum. This is a string
generated from the contents of the file. Using md5sum.exe,
which is also freely available for download, you can
generate the same string using the downloaded file as input.
If they match, what you downloaded has not been corrupted or
infected. If you trust the openoffice organization, then you
can rest assured that it is safe. Thousands of other users
think so.
