I'd recommend that you uninstall the Ubuntu version and reinstall 2.1
from the OOo downloads.

Versions prior to 2.1 have security issues:
http://secunia.com/search/?search=openoffice
  http://secunia.com/advisories/23612/
http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/220288

Interestingly enough, Ubuntu issued this security advisory:
http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-406-1 where neither package is older than
2.0.4...

You can uninstall the Ubuntu version & install the OOo 2.1 version by
following the directions here:

I would also recommend that you backup all critical
files/documents/directories *prior* to performing any
remove/installation of this type. Then do a:

sudo apt-get update

*before starting*.

Also, be aware that when you uninstall ubuntu-desktop it will also
uninstall the Ubuntu version of Thunderbird, so backup your Thunderbird
files (if you use it) and reinstall Thunderbird afterwards.

I think that once you install the OOo version your problems will be
resolved.
