I download OpenOffice.org from the following location: ftp://ftp.linux.cz/pub/localization/OpenOffice.org/devel/680/ I was running Fedora Core 6 when the hangs took place. I definitley did not have any "Desktop Effects" running. The worst time was the first time: I had over 90 days of uptime... Steven P.
