I check that site all the time. Yesterday it was fine with 96 free games to download.
Today when I try the free games page from my bookmark I get a 404! if I use the home page (www.jenkatgames.com), I get a test page for Apache!
Anybody know anything?
I'm updating myself! I guess they changed servers. They're back now.

Couple of short points; navigate to the free games section, otherwise they're time-limited trials. When installing the free games a downloader is also installed (no problems with this!), just remember to decline suggested other software, else toolbars etc might also get installed!
You may need to click custom and uncheck boxes and click decline a few times, but it's worth the hassle, and there's the option to cancel extras at the download stage if any still appear there!
Some of the free games seem really very good!
With JenKat, you have to OK for the game and then "decline" about 5 "offers" to get the game. You get NO choice as to where it is installed. It's an odd install, It puts part on Program Files and part on ProgramData. I move the 2 together ELSEWHERE and then re-create the shortcuts. I currently have 22 games from Jenkat (I may have more but from elsewhere) and none with toolbars or anything like that. It's just the "declines" that get tiresom and the moving of the game.
I don't let anybody install to Program Files if I can avoid it and then try to do as I do here - MOVE IT. With Vista, security can be a royal pain using Program Files.
The one thing you have to watch for. Occasionally the number of games goes up but the newest game doesn't seem that new. It appears that they "release" another game they've had for some time as free so it shows as much older. I just sort by name and look for the "extra" and update my list accordingly.

I'm getting a 404 error again and the same as Dragonlair - the Apache screen if I try their web address, so perhaps they are moving around at present. I hope they haven't disappeared as they're such a good site.
They're back again, Littlemaggit!
That's the way my whole week has gone - sites coming and going!
