I am having what I consider to be a serious problem with OpenOffice.  After
downloading OpenOffice 4.0.1 Most of my Microsoft Word files were
transferred into OpenOffice format without my instructions to do so.

your files are still in the '.doc' format. the only thing that has changed when 
you installed is that they are now associated with openoffice on the operating 
system level and are therefore opened with it instead of word. you could opt 
out of associating them with openoffice during the installation process.

to associate them back to word, right-click on any '.doc' file, choose 'open 
with', select microsoft word from the list of programs, tick 'always use this 
program to open the files of this type' and press ok.
