Default Can sealed water go bad?

My friend gave me on of those 5 gallon water cooler jugs. It is still sealed but he has had it for a year. It has been exposed to light, sun and hot temperature fluctuations in that year. Is there any thing I should worry about when brewing with this or just spend the $5 on a new jug.

Use it. No problem there. [Sorry, I guess I could have answered this in the other thread and saved you a moment.]

I bet it's fine, do it up. You're going to boil it anyway, right?
