When I start up OpenOffice 613! The Internet Dial-up dialog box appears, and try 
to connect to the Internet. I think that it is a update checking feature! How do 
I turn it off?

Also, The "Insert Special Characters" dialog box does not use the Hexadecimal 
Notation which is used by Unicode charts.

Note! I need to set up the Windows' GUI font to use an Unicode font (eg: Times 
new Roman) so I those special non-CP1252 characters can appear in the Dialog 
Boxes.

Fixed in 614 build
Problem was: OO tried to get the host name of the local computer, but on 
misconfigured hosts this caused a Dial-up. Misconfigured hosts seem to be the 
standard in MS operating systems ...
