I fixed it..... Following a tip, I ldd /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6...
Code:

ldd /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1: version `GCC_4.2.0' not found (required by /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6)
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libm.so.6 (0xb7ede000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0xb7ed3000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0xb7d9e000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

I then mv the libgcc_s.so.1
Code:

sudo mv /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1.old

This fixed the error and the apps started to act right, the problem with openoffice is different and I haven't fixed that yet..
