Steve,

Steve,
There is an archive of LO's installs.
But if you tell me what OS you have, I should be able to find it.
Please explain further ...
are you perchance saying that knowing my OS, you could access my
computer for any file on it? [surely, I'm missing something here]
are you perchance saying the OSs hold the OO/LO files from the
past to the present? [interesting concept; I'm interested in hearing more]
are you perchance saying that all OO / LO files are archived
on-line? [nice idea; now, the initial poster should be able to access]
or did you mis-read, not noting I was commenting to the
requester? [if so, all's forgiven & forgotten - and please have a
beautiful day]

I have the 3.4.6 install files, so if I was to make them available, I would need to know which OS you use [Windows, Linux, Mac] so I do not need to upload all of them to a place where you can download them.
BUT, I remembered there the LO Archive pages is located, so I do not need to do that.

This is the direct link for Windows, but you would need the help packs as well.

Hi
Lol, blimey!
Xp is not the world's most secure OS but even so it's still pretty difficult
for most people to gain access to your machine. It's still best not to give
out your ip address to everyone if you can avoid it jic though, especially
in on-line forums or mailing-lists.
It's usually possible to set-up some special area that can be shared with
other computers on your house or work-place network but even that can be
quite tricky. Trying to get your machine to act like a server is quite
challenging.
If you want to share files about LibreOffice with people on this
mailing-list then it's probably easiest to create an account at Nabble and
reply to any of the posts in the appropriate thread here. When you click on
Reply here you are given a message-box with a few buttons above it. The
"More" button allows you to upload a file. It works by pasting a link into
the message part of your reply so that even non-Nabble users can see it.
Tim was talking about something else completely, i think. I think he was
saying that if you tell him your OS he can find the appropriate installer
files that are hidden away somewhere on the TDF/LO hosting-servers.

If you have the proper software firewall installed, I use Comodo [free version] for my Windows machines, then it is very hard even for the experts to get access to your computer.
I did not see the start of the thread, so I did not know if you used Windows or something else.
I use Windows Vista and XP [both 32 bit], but my main systems run Ubuntu 10.04 and 12.04 [both 64-bit].
I am slowly installing 3.5.5 on my systems. I realized that on my Vista laptop I still had 3.4.6 on it, but the others have/had 3.5.4 until the upgrading.
Here is the link to all of the older version of LibreOffice.

If you go to the "box" version, you get the older version of the DVD.

You can use services such as Google Drive or DropBox for sharing files with others.
Never used those services, since I have a domain server account to host several domains on.
Maybe I should start thinking about one of them, for some ideas I have in the future.
HI
The side-question that arose was from a person who was suddenly worried that everyone could read all the files on their computer.
I was just making the point that deliberately trying to share files is tricky and that very few people have skills to crack into a system remotely, even a Windows system.

Even with setting up a shared system, it can be "tricky" to get it working properly.
Matching "workgroups" and other options can get people confused. Then getting some setting to be able to share read-only or fully shared. Then getting different OSs to share with each other on a private network.
With a router involved, it can make life safer, but software firewalls are a must.
I have a private network involving 3 routers, a switch and an old rack-mounter 24-port hub. I need to share 4 printers with all my systems while I allow friends in my building wireless access to my Net connection while not giving them any ability to even see my printers and computers. Talk about doing some "weird" network setups.
Hi ,
Recently Kiwi Rail (State owned Enterprise) in New Zealand has started
using Google Drive for collaboration of files and made the move on the
advice of it's ICT department to make the migration to the canonical
supported cloud service for the whole shebang. anyway what I was going
to say that Google drive is endlessley useful!
