Heya Kornowski

No problems installing and using, just thought I had to mention that it runs in xp sp2 compatibility mode. I checked this by looking at the properties for the executable.

OpenOffice 2.3 - Works flawlessly
VMWare 5.5 - Known compatibility issues, system hangs
VMWare 6.0 - Works flawlessly

BTW, put aside additions to the list, a little "thanks" or "this helped" wouldn't be too much to ask.

Thought I'd contribute here too, so here we go...
