A couple of days ago, I got the nag message that there was an update for LibreOffice. I downloaded the installer for 3.5.5 plus the help file and installed them as usual. As soon as I opened up LibreOffice again, the nag message came right back. I looked at the version and it was 3.5.4.2. Thinking maybe my computer had not fully absorbed the change, I ignored it. Today, I thought I would make sure I did it right as I was still being nagged. I again downloaded 3.5.5 and the help file and made extra sure I did not click on the older 3.5.4 installer. Everything went as normal. After I was done, the version still shows as 3.5.4.2 and I am still getting the nag message.
So...what's going on?

@KoHoSo reports (Aug 6 '12):
Resetting the user profile did not work. A plain uninstall and reinstall did not work wither. I had to clean out all leftover LO folders and remove all registry entries and then reinstall.

Did you try to completely (!) uninstall LO and then reinstall it?
