Hi :)
I keep thinking that it's 'got to be' something to do with the permissions in Win7.  But it's weird 
that you are not having the same problem with other programs, just with LO.  Have you installed 
other OpenSource programs such as Firefox and Gimp.
Firefox, Thunderbird, VLC, Filezilla... you name it.
What antivirus environment? If your realtime antivirus detects a false
positive in the unpacking / running of the installation, this is the
behavior I have seen. Disable the antivirus / unload the realtime
scanner.

Ah, that worked, I temporarily disabled Panda Internet Security and that solved the problem. Dunno if it's of interest but OO wouldn't install either. That was very good advice thank you all very much, feel much better now :)
And a million other impediments built in by M$ into Windows7.
Oh yes, 2 Win 7 machines, one XP, d' ya think any but the server pc can see the shared printers? Harrr

But then neither Linux nor MacOS are all they're cracked up to be... they all have aspects which drive their respective users insane! And before you ask, I *detest* the way Linux forces the UI language of an application to the language you set in your locale settings. The most dimwitted bit of Linux I've seen to date, as if people never mix languages on their hardware :)

Thanks again for all your help!

Mike
