It is hard to help until we know more about the DOC file in question. For now,
to make sure that not every big DOC file causes Writer to fail, I downloaded
the 'RTF 1.9.1 Specification', a 12.5 MB DOC file, from

http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=10725

and tried to open it with LibreOffice 3.5.2.2 (Build-ID:
281b639-6baa1d3-ef66a77-d866f25-f36d45f) German running on MacOS X 10.6.8
German. This took some seconds and near to 100% CPU usage, but finally the file
was open and I can read and edit it without problems ... Switching to another
application while the file is opened does not change the situation.

@Mike:
could you try to download and to open the 'RTF 1.9.1 Specification' as
mentioned above? If it opens without problems for you, too, we at least know
for sure that the problem depends on the contents of the DOC file in question,
not only on its size. (And if there are problems on your system to open the
'RTF 1.9.1 Specification', even better: then you don't need to anonymize your
file anymore ;-).)
