Possibly, but Microsoft is extremely active these days against piracy, and there are likely many safeguards on it, which would include the required registration, licensing and activation .... I sure wouldn't recommend it .... go buy it or use a free or cheaper alternative.

Limewire contains trackers and you can, if you want the lawsuit.
After the Grokster lawsuit lost 'fair use' aspects for consumers, in just one more case of judicial malfeasance due to stupidity in the Courts, the RIAA thugs pushed more DRM measures on developers.
Most moved off shore, to countries who still believe in FREEDOM for their citizens, like Sweden!
So, you want http://frostwire.com that is hosted off shore.
And, I would highly recommend you abstain from anything from Microsoft, instead using http://openoffice.org
Open Office is also in the free LiveCDrom distro of http://pclinuxos.com that brings 5500 games, programs like Office Suites, Browsers, and applications to you.

Why would you bother, when there's a free and legal version available - Openoffice. http://www.openoffice.org/
Openoffice allows you to save into MS Office's formats and many others - give it a try!
I hope you're using a firewall, anti-virus and anti-spyware software... Limewire is bad for having hidden nasties.

If you could get it, you would still have to license it. Just shell out the bucks and do it right.
