Hypnospace Outlaw

You browse a fictional 1990s-style internet from inside its own desktop, working as a volunteer moderator who tracks down rule-breakers across strange personal web pages. Between cases you manage your inbox, dodge viruses and install odd programs. It is a detective game told through websites. Is it your kind of game?
