Attempting to open e-mail attachments causes Openoffice to crash

more options

I have reset Firefox to default settings, uninstalled and reloaded Openoffice. Openoffice then works ok until I attempt to open an e-mail attachment, which causes it to crash. It then does not respond to any commands, nor is anything visible.

Is the problem with Yahoo! mail attachments?
