your education.

 1.7 More Free Abandoned Software
 In the April issue I mentioned a great site [1] which offered aging
commercial software that had been abandoned and was now free. This prompted
subscriber Mark Lynch to write "Hey, thanks for the link to the abandonware
site, but for games, this abandonware site [2] has a much better offering
with more games and no download limits. The other one only gives you a game
a day after the initial three, which is a little frustrating." Thanks Mark,
it does seem to have a good game selection. However I don't regard sites
like these as 100% trusted sources, so I advise you send anything you
download for malware testing prior to installation. For testing I recommend
both Jotti [3] and Virus Total [4]. Both are free.
