   I found a site which promises:
   Flash games - download free games.
   New free game every day. Download free games. Every day new game

   Their most recent posts were:
   • Checkers
   • Pool 8-ball
   • Chronoclasm Chronicles
   • Ancient Taxi
   • Grand Master Chess 2.5
   • World’s Greatest Places Mahjong
   • Amy’s Murder
   • The Adventures of Sindbad

   This all seems very familiar to me. I don't know much about internet sort of stuff but is this acceptable or normal?

   Hi Nass, as I have computer problems, I couldn't examine the site closely.
   Their download links go to GOTD or Bigfish (maybe others too). Those are the genuine downloads - that's okay. They offer also "Sphere: Related Content" - those links are dead or broken. I don't know what's in there, if there is any key then the side would distribute pirated software.
   I don't think so, as they also have an official link to Bigfish.
   I think it's just a blogger, who has collected every game from GOTD with meanwhile expired links.

   Ahh, I can see the difference now. They don't link to the download, they link to the page, which seems a good way of doing it and directs people to this site. The Sphere thing seems to be just a search engine. Thanks for looking into it.

   Yes, sorry about that. I don't know enough to have realized that it just linked to the GOTD page which is a good thing since it brings in more people. This means that they can't be downloaded after the GOTD day is over.

   I thought it was linking to a possibly-changed file which would be a bad thing :)
