I've reloaded OpenOffice2.4 four times and the PSI scan still says it is a threat. What gives? |

Have you checked the path of where the psi found your openoffice installation? It may give you a hint.

Open Office creates a new folder for every update. I suspect that your previous version(s) is(are) what Secunia is picking up.
Remnants should be in C:\program files\ in an OpenOffice named folder(s). My current version is in the "OpenOffice.org 2.4" folder, but the naming scheme has changed over the years. Deleting the old folders shouldn't cause any problems unless you have stored data in them.
