Insulting remarks? Like what? Don't be shy, tell us exactly what you saw.

This worries me! What if these "jokers" who added this into Calc also have
inserted other malicious software! Traps that gather sensitive information!

Then the open source community, who literally pours over the OOo
source code, would have spotted it long ago. That's the security
advantage with open source- no backdoors.

This is definitely not professional! Micrososft wouldn't allow it!

That's right. That's why I like it.

should remove it! and check the whole suite for other unwanted programs.

Sun knows better than anybody else (almost) what's in the source code.
If you feel unsafe, you can read through the source code yourself. Say
thank you to open source.
