You may need to post additional information about the type of error message you are getting or details about the system's behavior when you click on a link using OO. But, assuming I am understanding the problem correctly, I would check in Start, Default Programs, Set your default programs. Make sure your preferences for your default browser are correct. Then, in Start, Default Programs, Associate a file type or protocol with a program, check to verify that specific file types (especially .htm and .html) are set to open using your default browser. Let us know if this answers your question.
