Its download is a small .exe file and it mentions that it adds mysearchdial.. There have been a number of reports on the en-Forum of mysearchdial infection, but unfortunately no definite URL. If you are reading this posting ONLY download from www.openoffice.org/download (redirects to SourceForge and your download should start in 5 secs without further intervention by you). -- Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
