I just downloaded Microsoft Office from Limewire. First of all is this a good idea? I have Mcafee antivirus which warns me of any suspicious files before the download actually begins, so I think the files are safe. I then dragged the file onto my desktop and was wondering if I can delete the file from Limewire and if so...The file obviously cannot be uploaded from others once its been moved?!

There's no way for your antivirus software to detect a virus -before- the download. I would personally never download and run a program from a P2P site unless the computers security wasn't important to me.

Have you tried openoffice? There's a good chance that would provide all the features you want in an office suite.
