Created attachment 117672 [details] MS Office 2003 document LibreOffice writer hangs when trying to open word document with error message (does not react)
Unconfirmed with v4.4.5.2 under windows 7 x64. Unconfirmed with v4.4.5.2 under mint 17.2 x64. Unconfirmed with v5.0.0.5 under mint 17.2 x64. File opens normally and doesn't hang here.
It freezes with 4.4.5.2 and 4.4.3.2. If I grab the scrollbar and drag it down then eventually it displays the second page and I can move about it. As soon as I go back to the first page it freezes again. The first page does not render correctly when compared to MS Word Viewer.
