It sounds like the Apache OpenOffice file you downloaded did not
come from the official Apache OpenOffice Website. Sadly, I
udnerstand this to be possible, and commonly exploited by scammers.
With a brand new computer, I would re-format the HD and
re-install the Operating System first. Then, make sure you
obtain an incorrupted copy of Apache OpenOffice either from its
homepage, at <http://www.openoffice.org/download/>, or directly
from the AOO Project homepage at SourceForce, <http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/>

My husband and I just bought a brand new computer and as soon
as I attempted to download Apache OpenOffice I IMMEDIATELY
started having problems. First it wouldn't allow me to download
and then once I managed to get through that and it began
downloading, it started downloading multiple other programs
that I have never heard of. It tried to change our browser
downloading so many things we had a hard time trying to get rid
of and got a Trojan virus as well as having multiple other
viruses. Our internet will no longer connect and we have
multiple pop ups on our desktop. I cannot even view my browser
history to see if I was directed to a false sight due to the
fact that one of the viruses downloaded deleted our browser
history. My husband and I are VERY frustrated as this is a new
computer. I have used OpenOffice before and never had this
problem until now.
We are currently running a full scan on our computer in hopes
to fix the problem downloading this program has caused us.
