apt-get remove --purge openoffice-de-en
On a related note, will Linux download managers resume downloads? Which download manager should I be using under Knoppix (Debian)?

Thank you in advance for your advice.

You can use Kget it supports pause and resuming of downloads and it intergrates with Konqueror and other browsers I think for downloads it works perfectly for me.
