Files which are "password protected" often seem to become corrupted. I
believe there is something wrong with password protection in OOo.
Below are some links and other notes I have on salvaging data from a
corrupted file. Your problem probably cannot be solved because the broken
password setting will prevent you from unzipping the file. There is a
password cracker on www.ooomacros.org if you want to try.
If you can unzip it, these are relevant notes:

One user: Thanks for the effort! Here's how I did it:
1. renamed the defective file extension to .zip
2. extracted content of the .zip file
3. opened content.xml with Dreamweaver, selected in the view menu to show
errored lines (shows the bad text with yellow background) and removed them.
4. did the same with style.xml
5. updated the .zip file and renamed it back to .ods
Some styling was removed but the file worked and all the data was in it!
Cheers!
