i don't think you can, legitimately.

there is opensource Writer, which is compatible with MS word.

yes you're right, it is possible to purchase MS software from various sites on the internet but not to download safely for free

i bought MS office through a works promotion. the cd is indeed free, its the licence i paid for. it allows me to install it twice only.

the cd came with a serial number but both times when i install it i need to ring MS for an activation code, quoting the serial number it came with. therefore they'll only give me an activation code for my serial number twice
