We cannot tell where you have downloaded from. Many of the sites set to come high on search engine results are compromised, so we don't recommend using them.
You should download only from
http://www.openoffice.org/download
This will redirect to SourceForge servers where the files are stored. Your download will start automatically in 5-10 seconds without need (read: DO NOT) to click on any other link. If you are at all worried, you can check the integrity of the downloaded file by methods described in
