It appears that simply launching a file with the extension of XLS or DOC will 
crash on build 625.  This was not the case with 619 and I just switched back to 
619 to verify.  I verified that the file associations were set up properly in NT
(via My Computer -> View -> Options....)  

To make this fail, all I do is click on Start -> Run and enter in the location 
of an XLS file and click OK.  The soffice.exe program will load and I will see 
the OpenOffice splash screen.  It gets to about 18700k loaded (viewing the task 
in Task Manager) and then I get an error that there was a problem and that my 
work was saved to disk, if possible (appears to be an error generated by 
OpenOffice).  Right after that I get a Dr. Watson error and it generates a 
report.  I got this error trying to open a DOC file as well.

As far as my environment goes, I am running a Dell Optiplex GX110 PC with NT 
4.0 SP6a.  My local drives are formatted with NTFS.  I attempted to open files 
on my own local box as well as on a network drive (Novell Netware 5.1 SP2a 
server).

I'd be more than happy to provide any further information needed to resolve 
this.
