Accidentally? I doubt. :) 

If you are installing this on an Intel machine then you could probably get away with not replacing the thermal grease immediately. Although it would be best to get some thermal grease and replace it now to save yourself effort in the long run and avoid any possible overheating.

But like I said, SHOULD work fine, but I would advise you replace the thermal paste.

If scrape off, wipe with rubbing alcohol, and apply new. Rubbing alcohol is at the drug and food stores, and radio shack sells AS5 under their owb brand name.
