Comment 40 for bug 15179

My dad spent four hours yesterday working on an extremely important document firefox ->open with ->open office, being very sure to hit 'save' very often, as this was a _VITAL_ document. Turns out, it got put in /tmp and wiped. His confidence in both Ubuntu and OpenOffice is completely gone, and he went into a many minute rant on how disheartening it was and telling me to wipe Ubuntu from this hard drive.

I'm afraid I need a fix now. Can someone tell me how to configure the software to prevent this from being able to happen again, without waiting for the developers to fix the bug? And also-- this bug needs to be maximum severity. Data loss is a completely unacceptable type of problem. <email address hidden>
