While buying Microsoft Office 2007, I was told that I wll get a free
antivirus for 5 years once I register online. I was not prompted any such
option neither did I find it on the homepage.

Yes. Microsoft Anti-Virus is free indefinitely but you need to
download it from its website. Try this link:

It's called Microsoft Security Essentials.
Get it here:

Doesn't depend on you buying Office though - ANYONE can download and install
it...
