Is there a way to DOWNLOAD a flash game?

Ok, I have this stupid internet access company (EXCEL NET), and they only have a 4GB download limit every month, we usually go through that in a matter of days, and are then reduced down to dial up speed again. Now I want to download the flash games off the internet (like from addictinggames.com) and save them on my computer. (I have 2 macs, 1 intel, and one PPC) Is there a way I can do this to save my bandwidth? And if I do download them, how do I play them on my computer?

Thanks in advance!

Windows is my Net server for my Macs. When I restart it I have to setup network bridge afresh each time. Why?

I surf the Net exclusively on my Macs, but via wreless
dial-up connection on my Windows laptop, which acts as
my server. The issues are two-pronged.

1. Whenever I shut down the server (due Windows
fragility issues), I have to set up my Network
connections (Netwrok Bridge) all over again such that it streams the connectivity to my Macs. (This is different from having to refresh dialup connections periodically.) Before that, when I check the network connections on my Mac Mini and G4, I notice that all the IP addresses and other details showing a connection to the server display alright, but always get a “NOT CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET” message when I try to surf. Until I run Network setup on the Windows laptop all over again, that is. What gives?

2. Also, I wanted to share files with all computers (PCs and Macs) on this network, but I don’t see anything on the server. What am I doing wrong?
