You don't necessarily have to "uninstall" OpenOffice, unless you are specifically trying out a new version and want to keep the old one. On my distro I do updates through YaST, though I am notified automatically about updated packages. I haven't been on Windows that much. As for automated updates, while they are easier to use in one respect, if just set them on automatic you could open yourself up to some security flaws through ignorance. I'm not talking about anything specific to OpenOffice here. I am just saying it's a good idea to know what software you have on your system. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
