Can you do a "Save As..." in another folder?

Try renaming your user settings folder after closing all OO processes including the quick starter. The Windows path to the settings folder is
c:\documents and settings\username\Application Data\ OpenOffice.org2
Under Win 98 - C:\Windows\Application Data\OpenOffice.org2

If that does not fix the problem, try reinstalling with the 'repair' option selected.
