    That block of addresses belongs to an outfit that seems to be
    associated with "all things spammy" if you look them up via Google.
    I can't imagine why opening ooffice would try to contact that net
    block, or any other for that matter. Ooffice doesn't do that here.

    If you don't get any other concrete ideas on this I'd be tempted to
    remove and re-install OpenOffice to see if that makes a difference.
    If you were running a Windows box I'd suggest a diagnostic program
    program like "spybot" but .....
