Try eBay-or a second hand computer store-or a 'casjh converts' type store (loan/pawnbrokers).

This is not a "warez" site. We are able to legally distribute only freeware and shareware, since they are free.
Microsoft Word 97 is a retail app. It is illegal to offer for downloading. If you want a Word viewer then you can obtain it from here

Word 97/2000 Viewer (Windows 95/98/NT)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=EN
If you are in need for a word replacement app, you can get a freeware program which should handle most of the chores MS WORD can do, and for free

AbiWord is a free word processing program similar to Microsoft® Word. It is suitable for typing papers, letters, reports, memos, and so forth.

Get Open Office a great freeware (and even open source) MS Office Alternative that can read and write doc, rtf, ppt, xls and can export to PDF without Adobe Acrobat. It's better than MS Office in every way, except that you would have to change certain habits.

You can buy Microsoft Word from here or check out OpenOffice, an open source(FREEWARE) alternative that is compatable with Microsoft Word.
