Item 1)
A memory scan by NOD32 AntiVirus reported the following errors:
a.. C:\Downloads\OOo_2.4.0_Win32Intel_install_wJRE_en-US.exe »NSIS
»openoffice.org-pyuno.cab »CAB »testtar.tar »TAR - archive damaged b..
C:\Downloads\OpenOffice 2.4 Installation Files\openoffice.org-pyuno.cab
»CAB »testtar.tar »TAR - archive damaged c.. C:\Program
Files\OpenOffice.org 2.4\program\python-core-2.3.4\lib\test\testtar.tar
»TAR - archive damaged What action is required to resolve these errors?
Download it again, it got corrupted from the indications above.
Or change to a better Antivirus program; many think that software
installation programs are viruses. Not only OpenOffice. AVG is free.
Item 2)
a.. Java 6 Update 6 was loaded.
b.. Then OpenOffice 2.4 was loaded and it loaded Java 6 Update 4.
Does OpenOffice 2.4 use Java6 Update 6, or Java6 Update 4?
Should either one of these be removed?
AFAIK, 6.6 works fine for everything that needs java.
Open Writer and go to Tools>Options>Java. Wait several seconds while the
list of available versions is populated. Explicitly select the one you
want by ensuring the radio button next to its name has a black dot
inside it (click to add dot, click again to remove it). Then, as far as
OpenOffice is concerned, you can remove the other versions. That does
not, of course, guarantee that nothing else will break - QuickTime, for
example, needs Java; which version? No idea.
