Do you want to uninstall Open Office or just not have it run at startup? Msconfig is just for troubleshooting purposes. To permanently keep a program from running at startup, download Codestuff Starter:

Work through this & see if you can remove it that way:

Cleanup the MSCONFIG in Xp/\Vista

Since you are dealing with the registry, read first through the Backup link provided. If you feel squeamish about messing with the registry, use the MSConfig Clean Up Utility listed under Related Pages.
