Apache_OpenO....exe is malicious, and Chrome has blocked it.

Download warnings for malware or unwanted software

You can protect your computer by allowing Chrome to warn you about unusual or potentially dangerous downloads. Some bad downloads can cause viruses, leak your private data, change your browser and computer settings, or add unwanted extensions or toolbars to your browser.

Warnings

When phishing and malware detection is turned on you may see the messages below:

Message	What it means
Malicious Download Warning	You attempted to download malware.
Uncommon Download Warning	You attempted to download something from an unfamiliar and potentially dangerous website. You should only download programs from sites you trust.
Unwanted Software Download Warning	You attempted to download a deceptive piece of software. This program, disguised as a helpful download, will actually make unexpected changes to your computer.
Note: You might also see a "Virus detected" error. This error is triggered by your anti-virus software and is different from Chrome’s malicious download warning. Learn more about other download errors

We've received numerous complaints about this problem, but it is not an OpenOffice issue.

One post on the "users" mailing list on how to get around this Chrome problem can be found in this mail message:
