Microsoft is not the answer.
Microsoft is the question.
"No" is the answer!
The nice thing about Windows is - It does not just crash, it displays a dialog box and lets you press 'OK' first.

Of course he has it. How else would he be clicking on things?

Also, I would first like to ask something: did you try installing AA fonts? If so, you may have screwed up. I suggest playing around with Tools -> Options -> OpenOffice.org -> Font Replacement, thought I may be misreading your post.
