Do a "strings" command on all the OOo binaries and grep for ip patterns. I can't imagine why any ip address would be hard coded into the program. Some FQDN's sure, but not an ip address.
It's not going to be in the OO binary or everyone would be seeing this. My guess is that the addresses are coming from ~/.recently-used which several gnome aps use to create a list of recently used file names. In OO these show up at the bottom of the File menu. If you end up with some remote URL's listed in the .recently-used file then many apps will try to visit them when they start up.
I don't know if there is a way to control what gets saved in the list, but you can always clean it out manually and see if that speeds up the OO startup.
