Like Karl, I can't read French. But I can say this: anyone can easily 
defeat any attempt on their Office suite, whether Open or MS. If the 
software can't see the Internet, it can't be attacked from the Internet. 
So if the firewall says "OO.exe has no Internet access" or "word.exe has 
no Internet access", then hackers to either suite can do as they please 
and not bother me.
