You were apparently given illegal, pirated versions of Microsoft
software. If you install it, you'll be doing so illegally and performing
a grave disservice to your customers. You could be prosecuted if
the customers notify their local law enforcement authority.
I WOULD SUGGEST YOU FIND A REPUTABLE COMPANY
TO WORK FOR!
There are three ways to report piracy:
Method 1: Email piracy@microsoft.com
Method 2: Call the Microsoft Anti-Piracy Hotline at
(800) RU-LEGIT.
Method 3: Go to the following web page to fill out an online reporting form:
