Overview of the download and installation procedure
To download and install OpenOffice.org 2.0, follow this checklist:
Be aware: OOo 2.x replaces an earlier 2.0.x installation

If you are still testing 2.2.1, you can obtain the code to reinstall
(recommend that you use custom install to install in a different
directory/path) at most any of the OOo mirrors:
http://distribution.openoffice.org/mirrors/#mirrors
For example, click on one of the mirrors in Russia:
http://ftp.chg.ru/pub/OpenOffice/
select 'stable/' then '2.2.1/' and you will find the code for 2.2.1.
Note: yes, I realise that you will need to download the code again if
you deleted the original from your system. Unfortunately that will be
the only way to reinstall.
