I'd agree with this idea. Just upgrade to the latest and (so far!) 
greatest :-)

Just surf onto the LibO site and it should 'automagically' recognise 
your machine architecture and OS. Then download the new binaries, and 
whilst that is happening remove the existing LibO libraries and then 
reinstall the new downloads.

On GNU/ Linux this is so easy one can fall asleep over it; however, it 
may or may not be more be complicated in Windows land, so YMMV. Just 
follow any directions that the documentation for your OS suggestions and 
you cannot go wrong. V. 4.0 is very stable and as always, user-friendly.
