What is "it"? Is the "it" that scrolls the same "it" that you click on?

Is it scrolling all the way to the bottom or just to a certain point?
Does this happen with all spreadsheets or just one (or some)?
If it is happening with all spreadsheets and going all the way to the bottom, check that the down arrow key and/or page down (pg dn) keys aren't stuck.
If it's only going to a certain point and only on some spreadsheets, then try re-saving your spreadsheet with the cursor in the A1 cell. Calc will use the last saved position as the re-opening position based on the information regarding the user in the OpenOffice User Profile.
These are the first two things I can think of, but knowing the answers to the first two questions may help eliminate other options.

When you installed OpenOffice, did you enter your name and initials when prompted?

Sorry I am late getting back to you...family stuff...
I just figured out that it scrolls down 120 lines when it "starts" doing the auto-scroll. Also it seems when I check for updates, it comes back saying "Checking for an update failed", and "Error reading data from the Internet.
Server error message: "

Thanks,
