    Remember Kazaa? It's what basically took over after Napster went to paid. People are STILL using it!!! It's full of viruses and what-have-you. Over the past year, I've had to help at least a dozen people (all under the age of 21) fix their computers because of viruses they got from Kazaa.

    Thanks for the link.

    I DO use torrents. A friend of mine introduced them to me back in '05 or '06. Been using them ever since.

    I found it on h33t dot com ( has porn files so I dont post a live link ) You need a torrent down loader u torrent , and bit torrent are two of many http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/File-Sharing/uTorrent.shtml http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/File-Sharing/BitTorrent.shtml You need to know how to down load torrent files .
    p.s. I see it on KAT as well http://kickass.to/usearch/microsoft office/
    some thing you might think about , many Linux distros use open office , it will run many windows files . I use http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=dreamstudio

    Why would you want MSOffice when OpenOffice exists?

    It's good, but never perfect, imho. I have used it, and still have it. I just don't trust it if I want to send documents to people. There always seems a little bit more effort to get Open office documents to open up as I wish in MS Word.

    Thanks. The ones I have found tend not to be working or are other hidden programmes. I also need 32bit not 64bit. A link from the first option was sevenrip. Not MS Office. I'm downloading another from KAT.

    You might want to scan them for virous . On open office , I have used the text editor to create some files , I have not used the other programs . You could start a new thread on open office and see who is using it .

    There isn't any viruses on them. There just not what it says on the tin.
    Open Office is fine for certain things, but not everything, imho.
    I've opened documents up to many times where the fonts are different. The layout is slightly off. Just generally not 100%.

    Napster Bad!

    I remember newsgroups. I remember when usenet binary access came standard with my ISP package. Now apparently it's a subscription thing that some people still actually use. I'm not too big on paying for shit that used to be free but others seem to suck it up like dirty whores.
