Please, what is the name of the downloaded file? OpenOffice.org 3.x is *not* an available version of OOo. Maybe 'OOo-dev 3.0.0 Beta 300m3 Build 9284' [a pre-beta snapshot] which would be <OOo-Dev_DEV300_m3_Win32Intel_install.exe> [139464 KB 2008-03-14]? [1] To download OOo 2.3.1, go to -> <http://download.openoffice.org/index.html> For an overview of all localized OOo versions for all platforms you may click at 'Get more platforms and languages' ...
