> Where is the md5 link to use > to compare the md5 sums? > Details of MD5 checking are given in this note linked off the main download page http://www.openoffice.org/download/checksums.html The MD5 checksum for the selected file are in a link (cunningly labeled MD5) towards the right of the line labelled "Full Installation" under the file selection dialog. One should select the desired file (language, operating system and version) from the dropdowns on http://www.openoffice.org/download (only use this site, please). The selection mechanism will redirect automatically to a (nearby) SourceForge server and the download will start automatically in 5 - 10 seconds with no need to click on anything else other than to confirm "Download or Save?" (dialog browser specific). -- Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.apache.org
