Please clarify whether your issue is the one described in this thread, that is
installation via group policy or via /qn, associates LibO with .doc, regardless
of user settings.

Please report whether you've tested this in the following manner and if not,
please re-test using the procedure below: find a system where
openoffice/libreoffice is not installed and make sure that .doc files are
opened by Windows wordpad. Then do the following:

1) Download the Libreoffice installation (.msi) file to your desktop
2) Start->Programs->Accessories->Command prompt
3) In the box that will open, make a "cd" to the desktop directory. Then enter:
msiexec /i nameoflibreoffice.msi REGISTER_NO_MSO_TYPES=1 /qn

Nothing will be displayed, but you can tell when installation is finished when
a Libreoffice icon will appear on screen.

Then double click a .doc file. Does it open with Libreoffice or with Wordpad?
