Just open PowerPoint, open the file with it, remove the password, save it. If you can't remove the password, save it using Save As and give it a new name and don't use the password option. Now you can open it with OpenOffice.org.
I guess you don't have PowerPoint installed, if you did, you wouldn't try to open it with OpenOffice.org right? So just ask the person who sent the file to you to save it without a password and send it back to you. OpenOffice.org and MS Office password handling are not compatible with each other.
