am confused.

Star Office 8.0 (SO 8.0) is very similar to OpenOffice.org. They are basically the same program. The difference being that SO 8.0 has additional filters for opening files that OOo does not have. There is commercial help available as well as some proprietary parts which OOo can not contain because of its license. Neither of these programs place an icon on the desktop. Windows does have the Quickstarter icon in the System Tray (next to the clock). Quickstarter will handle all the tasks of several icons at once. If you want a desktop icon, Start > All Programs and look for the OpenOffice.org folder of programs. Drag the appropriate icon to the desktop as a copy of the shortcut to that program.

Thanks, I was getting confused. I am very impressed with OOo.
