thats not quite easy, because for me, keeping the old archives never 
made sense. More than that ProTeXt's version number is only branded in 
the name of the archives.

The good news are: I found an older CD containing a version of ProTeXt 
in which the version numbers of the single components (GhostScript, 
GSview, MiKTeX and TeXnicCenter) lie between their equivalents, stored 
in 2007-2.0 and 2007-2.2 on tug.org. While i still can remember that i 
didn't created subreleases in that times, i think the probability is 
really high, that the CD mentioned above contains version 2.1, you're 
asking for.

Therefore i repacked the whole stuff in a new archive ProTeXt-2.1.exe, 
and you can download it from

Hope, this might help you.

Sincerely - Thomas
