Hey all,
Quoted from computer active:

Quote: "A security vulnerability has been discovered in free office suite OpenOffice. The problem could expose users to identity theft and let hackers steal information. The flaw potentially exposes information on a computer if the user opens an infected document. People using OpenOffice should upgrade to version 1.1.14 and then update it with a patch available from http://download.openoffice.org/index.html This problem also affects the trial version of OpenOffice 2. Anyone using this trial should upgrade to the 1.9.95 version that includes the patch."

Hope some of you find this useful if you didn't already know about it.

Formely play2kill
