You can only download the trial, not the full version. If you wish to play the full game, you can buy a new disc.You are... FALSE!
My friend's CD got really scratched up once (but still had the CD key), and he couldn't play the game. So I got a program like Power ISO, ripped the contents of the disk and stuffed it in to a .ISO file, which he then mounted to play the game again.
Just go torrent a Halo PC .ISO file or something, get a program like Daemon Tools, and "mount" it. It makes the operating system think there's actually a Halo PC CD in one of the disk drives, but it really just emulates it. So, you can install it like that, and play without needing a CD key.
And if this is "piracy", I deem it not. If you already have a legit CD key, it's probably alright. I mean, I still have my CD key, but I mount it sometimes because I get tired of fumbling with the CD :P
