(1) Technically, I think that site works by identifying itself as the Google webcrawler and seeing the full-text version that many sites would like to have indexed.

First I gotta shout out my man Nifflas. He was relatively big in the freeware community back in the 2000's, but he's kind of fallen into obscurity lately.
