    This may be against the rules, and mods please edit if it is so, but have you tried the Underdogs web site?

    I'll leave it up to you to google search it rather than me directly linking it.

    Actually I recall a new law being recently passed that states that software which is no longer being sold or produced may be reproduced for "archival" purposes.

    However, I think that law is still a bit archaic and states that the distribution of said software is still illegal.

    However, sites like The Underdogs exist because lots of the original developers simply don't care. The games that are still protected can't be downloaded, but there's tons of unprotected games that are there quasi-legally.
