(Now, I've asked Acmlm about posting this link.. and he said it's ok as long as I provide no key)

Not much I can say about this.... I found the link on another board in which the person claimed to find by using IIS' directory listing calls. Apparently, it is Office 2003 Standard. I can't find any active trail page at microsoft.com, but I found this interesting to say the least. From replies in the other board's thread, it seems that the copy works in two ways. If you use a trial key (unsure how to obtain one unless there's a program I'm unaware of), it acts like a trial copy that lasts for half a year. If you use a retail key, it doesn't have a time-limitation.

EDIT (by Yomi): Fixed stretch.

The question is... how long time does it take before Microsoft would take this down?

...althought, somehow I think it's mainly for corperations. Or something.

Well, they can't start a legal case against us for linking it.

1. We are just linking right? When was linking illegal after all?
2. It's hosted on their own server. XD

And it was wise to ask Acmlm about it thought.

ROM sites, anyone? Plus, this is on Microsoft's own server, so I really doubt that they'd be successful in a lawsuit of any kind.

Now that is weird.

I'm going to come right out and say I'm already downloading this and hoping to stumble across a retail key in... you know... my daily activities.

Interesting... after a while, Microsoft will catch on--either that or they purposefully did this so they could track how this information spreads

Actually, I don't know what I'd even do with these applications. I'll just keep the install file on hand in case I ever need them for some reason.
