Yes, FuNET does approve that. There are no Lucas Arts games online ;)
The main reason why is because old 8-bit software is considered abandonware that noone
cares for. However, if some company would officially complain, their software would be
removed. Fortunately, this has not happened since the start of the MSX archive at
FuNET
(1994).
