In order to
One possible version:
In order to preserve its intellectual property, in October, 2008, Microsoft decided to black out the desktop screen of pirated software users, which has aroused/ stirred up a heated discussion on the Internet.
为了保护自己的知识产权，十月，2008，微软决定把盗版软件用户的桌面屏幕上的黑出来，这已经引起了互联网的热烈讨论。
From the point of view of Microsoft, since it has invested large sums of money in developing new products, it has the unquestionable right to profit from them. Whats worse, the companys loss resulting from pirated software can reach up to billions of US dollars annually. As a consequence, this measure is no doubt a must.
从微软的点，因为它一直在开发新产品方面投入大笔资金，它有从中获利的绝对权。更糟的是，该公司的盗版软件造成的损失每年可达到数十亿美元。作为结果，这项措施无疑是必须的。
Nevertheless, netizens think absolutely differently. In the first place, large numbers of people have no alternatives but to use pirated software, just because they cant bear the high price of the legitimate copy, and facing this situation, the company has the responsibility to take it into account that there exists a wide gap in purchasing power between developing and developed countries. In the second place, the company should fight against piracy in a proper and legal way. As it is, it has infringed on the privacy of the users concerned, and caused great loss to them.
尽管如此，网民认为绝对不同。在第一个地方，大量的人没有选择，但使用盗版软件，只是因为他们不能承担的合法副本的高价格，并面临这种情况，公司有责任考虑到，在发展中国家和发达国家之间的购买力有很大的差距。其次，公司应该以适当的合法途径打击盗版行为。因为它侵犯了用户的隐私，给他们造成了很大的损失。
As far as Im concerned, on one hand, we should do everything in our power to stop using pirated software in order to encourage companies to develop more advanced products. On the other hand, companies like Microsoft need to take wiser measures to protect themselves. After all, extreme action cant solve problems at all.
就我而言，一方面，我们应该尽一切力量停止使用盗版软件，以鼓励企业开发更先进的产品。另一方面，像微软这样的公司需要采取更明智的措施来保护自己。毕竟，极端行动不能解决问题。
