I tested the mirror listd on the bottom and it was slower than
the openoffice.org link below
http://download.openoffice.org/2.1.0/contribute_bouncer.html?product=OpenOffice.org&os=win&lang=en-US&version=2.1.0
so try this link and see what it wants.
planetmirror wanted over 1 hour for the download for my broadband download
(19.7 KB/sec)
when openoffice.org's site wanted under 10 minutes with broadband (126
KB/sec)

I was ready to give MS the big flick and try open office so I stayed up
till after midnight to download the 93MB at reduced rate and it wouldn't
even download. It said, on the bouncer page, that the download selected
was not available. Apart from that the options on the bouncer page are
too cryptic for a non-geek person to understand. It's hardly
encouraging.
Could you tell me please what to select on those three columns on the
bouncer page. I'm after the current version of open office to install
on an XP SP2 machine that has the jre already installed on it.
Thank you,

Hi Murray
Try http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/openoffice/stable/2.1.0/?fl=
Second from bottom should be what you want.
There were problems with mirrors when first announced.
