As long as you downloaded IPB 1.1,1.2 AND 1.3 from IPB website, you are free to use it but as the support desk said that there will be no support given, consider going to Invisionize to get the problem solved. (P.S. They are NOT IPB Staffs).

Dude IPB said we can download 1.2 and 1.3 from anywhere after they mis-understanding one of my emails, we got it sorted though.

Umm, you missunderstood.

Its different. V1.2 and V1.3 was distributed under an old and different lisence which is no longer on the website. I asked invision if we could download it and use it and they said yes as long as it was v1.2 or v1.3.
When V1.2 and V1.3 was released Invision was a free to download software company. And then they turned around and turned into a proper company...

Well I contacted them. Here is the reply.

Hello,

If you downloaded the trial version prior to IPS halting it's release it is legal to use on a trial basis. In the event that you decide to use the software full time, therfore no longer being a trial, you are required to purchase a full license.

If the software was downloaded from a source other then IPS it is illegal to install and use.

If you have any further questions please contact us so that we may assist you further.
