3) What is expected to happen in LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:
cd ~/Desktop && wget https:/
and it opens quickly and successfully.
4) What happens instead is Writer hangs indefinitely.
WORKAROUND: Use Abiword.

Original Report Comments: OOo Writer grey screens and CPU usage jumps up. The running Writer then has to be killed. This happens under Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit with OO 3.0.1 (build 9379).
