[Solved] Download problem
Is there something wrong with the downloader? I've been trying for 2 days to download OpenOffice to no avail. I've tried going through the main site here and through Source Forge, but keep getting the same result. It takes forever (30-45 minutes) to just go half way and then it dumps and starts all over. I've used FireFox and google Chrome, but keep getting the same results. Can anyone help?

Re: Download problem
I just successfully downloaded the Windows exe file for installation, but I had to try twice. Try using one of the alternative download links on the right side of the OpenOffice.org download page under Additional resources. Look in the Binaries folder for en-US and then for a file name ending with Win_x86_install_en-US.exe

Re: Download problem
OK, thanks for your reply. I FINALLY got it to work (on the 10th try). I usually use FireFox, but Chrome was the one that got it. IDK why it was so balky, but it still took more than 1 hour before it all downloaded. I also successfully unpacked and installed it and it now seems to be running. TNX
