Re-download Office Home and Student 2010. I have a product key but no CD

In March or April 2010, I purchased Office Home and Student 2010, online.  I have the product key.  I do not have a CD.

In October, the hard drive on the computer containing the software failed.  Now, with a new hard drive installed, I need to re-download the software.  I have searched the site extensively and have not found information about how to do this.  

Please provide detailed information about how to download the software.  Answers to an earlier question included a URL to a site for the trial version of software.  When I clicked on the link, however, I was redirected to a page for purchasing full versions of the software. 

Please help.  Thank you.

While getting a new trial will work, a more direct link to obtain the download package again is;

    I had a Virus on my computer and I didn't have time to trouble shoot the issue so I took it to Staples to have them remove the virus. They just wiped my computer clean and I lost my Microsoft office 2010. The link you provided:

    Was very helpful downloading MS Office Home and Student 2010. Because when I tried to log on my Microsoft  account it would take me to the new version . Thank you so very much. This saved me time and money. I went ahead a purchased a backup copy on CD so I wouldn't have this issue again.  Thanks again.

    I need to download Office 2010 and when I go to where I am directed, my product code is not valid as it is trying to download Office 2013.  Where should I go to download Office 2010?
