OK, I don't seem to recall this one.
I installed OpenOffice and I can go to a *.pps file (powerpoint) and I can select to open that file with OO instead of MS PPT, I even check "always open with" and it works for that file, but damn, I don't recall how to set this so that OO opens ALL further files downloaded from the net.
My inlaws have MS Office 2004 and it hans quite a lot on PPT slideshows, it seems a common problem, even in 2008 from what I have read and the only way around it is to use something else like Open Office or NeoOfice
Thanks
EDIT: 10.5.8
