As an Systems Engineer, I often download software from either the publisher or a retailer. The rest is purchased off the shelf. There is such a thing as legitimate downloading. You pay and then download. In this case, I need a link to a retailer who sells Maya 4 or contact info for a person who has an old retail version for sale. The publisher no longer sells the software.
So do I. But I also know that when the manufacturer no longer sells/supports it there's NO legal way to download it legally.
As you claim to know that it's no longer for sale yet you want to know where to download it one can only assume you want a pirated version.
Contact the manufacturer. They may be able to help you out or know a legal channel that can.
Any shady site selling you anything now (and that includes eBay) is almost certainly selling pirated goods.
As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.

I find your lack of faith disturbing.

not technically correct. E.g if you have MSDN you can download windows 3.0

You can also transfer the licence with some software ( even Windows XP, provided you transfer the entire package that Windows was purchased with; cd, keys, packaging, manuals, the PC itself if it's an OEM version ).
This isn't the case with Maya though.. Maya licences are indeed non-transferable.

If it only works in Internet Explorer; it doesn't work.
