Thanks for the info though.  If I have any problems with friends' 
computer with Win-7 and LO installs, I will remember your "trick".

I do not use Win-7, so this may be a stupid question.  So is "Revo 
Uninstaller" the replacement for add/remove programs in the XP and Vista 
Control Panel?  Or is it some other uninstall program that can be used?

Since I never had any real install issues with OOo or LO, except one OOo 
version where the JRE bombed out every time, so I never had to use an 
uninstall program to remove OOo or LO on a Windows computer.  Actually I 
had to do that with "beta" and "RC#" version, but that does not count.

The error dialogs came up with 3.3.3 on Vista, but they were talking 
about .NET issues and by saying "OK" or "YES", the install went though fine.

Now on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, I sometimes have to do a "purge" for versions, 
but that is issues on my system, not LibreOffice issues.
