Obviously I'm not about to second guess Norton. I very much would like to install the newest version on this new 8.1 computer, but Norton says no. There might be a way to do it without the installer, but I don't know how. I actually tried to install the older version from a flash drive on the computer with the newer version, but it wouldn't install without an OO installer. I actually took a chance on downloading the program, because I thought I could save it instead of run it and hopefully have Malwarebytes check it before installing it-if that is possible.

Either I am being fooled by the official site, or Norton is full of crap.

CANNOT INSTALL OPENOFFICE IN WINDOWS 7 UPDATE

I will not update to the new version on the computer that has the 4.0-if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I tried everything that was advised to fix it and nothing worked. The newer version (4.1) works fine on a different computer except that the spellchecker does not work. I have Open Office on two other computers and am reasonably happy with it-especially the older 4.0.

It did the job, but just for good measure I tossed the Apache Open Office. Again, fortunately, I was advised to get Malwarebytes to get rid of that crap. However, the hijackers managed to inflict themselves on my browsers. Fortunately, I didn't complete the installation. I had previously downloaded it from the same site about two weeks ago and it came complete with 'Rocket Search' and 'Speedial'.

CANNOT INSTALL OPENOFFICE IN WINDOWS 7 DOWNLOAD

I just did () try to download Open Office from the 'official site' and Norton shut it down. If you have a way to check the download history and can find the exact address the download came from, it can be reported to go on a blacklist. Or, if the system is already compromised from some other source, it may hijack the browser or the search page to lead you to the wrong site. Somehow, the scam sites manage to appear at the top of a web search in some situations, and it fools lots of people. My guess is that you did a web search for open office and clicked on the top hit. These sites have nothing to do with OO the download absolutely did not come from the official OO site. These sites are very slick-some are more professional-looking than the official OO site-and they fool a lot of people, even people who should know to be more careful. The problem is that there are lots of scam sites that look official, and will install OO, but they are in fact scam sites which install all kinds of nasty malware along with OO. Sorry to hear of this problem-it's really, really awful.

exe file and double clicking on it starts the process of unpacking and installation. There are mechanisms to verify beyond a doubt that the file is complete, but downloads are usually good with modern internet, so we can skip these at present. If inspection of your download directory shows a file of about this size and similar name, then you may reasonably assume that the download has taken place successfully. In the case of OpenOffice downloading should produce a file of about 145 MB, called something like Apache_OpenOffice_incubating_3.4.1_Win_install_en-GB.exe (exact name depends on the precise operating system and language). What write next may be unnecessary for you, but I have run into several cases in the past few days where this explanation was` necessary, so I repeat it here.

After the download process it is usual to double click on the downloaded file to cause installation of the new version to take place, at which time the older program can manifest itself. Normally the presence of any program on a computer does not prevent downloading a new version.
