NO!!!...The computer I built was destroyed by a malicious program, d-l'd by
MySpace, that couldn't be removed by my anti-virus program(McAfee). It
deleted my entire Registry.
I just recently bought a used Dell. I want my Office 2000 back, but my Disc
1 is broken. I can not insert it into the drive. How can I load the disc 1
info without the disc?

Does Microsoft have a location where I can enter the Product Key for the
software I have and d-l the program?

Thanks,
John
