OT: Harpoon on the PC

Subject: OT: Harpoon on the PC

I play Harpoon (sometimes). 

I got involved in the game because of Tom Clancy's "Hunt for Red
October" and "Red Storm Rising" books (IMHO 2 of his best). He used the
Harpoon material for technical resource and playing out the possible out
comes of certain conflicts. Plus because Larry Bond (creator of Harpoon)
was a good Naval Intel (smart belly buttons?) Officer and also writes
good books (got them all).

I've seen the Harpoon computer simulation game but never got the chance
to buy it while it was out. Is it old enough to be available for
downloading off the web? Know the URL?

Or is there someone out there who would be willing to allow me to hold a
backup version of the game for them? Er... Just for archive reasons
only... Ahhhh... In case the person has an earthquake or fire or their
house gets hit by a meteor or something... Then they'll still have an
easy access to the game.
