Hi tingkeeyong,

Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.

For your question, currently the VS 2008 Pro edition is not available on the website.

If you are an MSDN subscriber, you could download it from Subscriber downloads center , here is the download link:

By the way, if you have question about Subscriber, I suggest you contact the Visual Studio Subscriptions Customer Service Centers to get a better help:
