Bob never mentions that his copy of BareMinimum is secret, but he does suggest that he is willing to make an illegal copy of the software for Bruno and "keep it their little secret". "Let's keep this our little secret" is a common English expression which shares a similar meaning with the idiom "Let's keep this between us".
Bob offers to "burn a few copies" of BareMinimum software for Bruno. In this context, the verb "to burn" means to create a copy of the software on CD. "To burn" can mean to destroy (by fire) in a different context, however when speaking of computers, "to burn" is to copy using a CD or DVD writer.
Bob writes that "the price is right". This idiom expresses that Bob believes that Delavigne can afford this software, or that the cost is reasonable.
Bob writes that his copy is still "under warranty", which is another way of saying that it is still guaranteed (the manufacture promises that the product is of good quality and works correctly).

1 The way things are: This is the correct choice. "As things stand" means "with the current situation" or "as things are at the moment". Another example of its use is: "The government has a lot of work to do because the general public is very dissatisfied with the situation as things stand.".
1 As you can see: Oops! This isn't the best choice here!
1 Unfortunately: This is incorrect. The term "unfortunately" is not synonymous with "as this stands". "Unfortunately" means "sadly", "regrettably" or "unluckily". Example: Unfortunately, my husband left me to live with a man.
2 incidentally: This is the correct answer. "Incidentally" is synonymous with "by the way". It indicates that you have extra information or something else to say that is not necessarily linked to the current topic, but which you are going to add as a side-note.
2 I almost forgot: This is not the right choice. "By the way" does not mean that you have forgotten, or omitted, to say something.
2 Keep this secret: This is not the right answer. A good way of asking someone to keep something secret would be "keep this to yourself" or "don't tell anyone", but "by the way" has nothing to do with secrets.
