TUSC?
I've posted the models I could easily determine the license of. Since several of the zips I posted have multiple models, total models and sprites posted probably are at least 30. I personally am not comfortable posting the rest until I am sure of the license. Cries of 'TUSC' - while painful  - likely won't encourage me to throw caution to the wind and ignore Az's stipulations.
The page had been an .asp page with some scripting and I can't open the page normally in IE -don't want to set up a server just to read the page so I have to try to read the text bits between the script, and compressed html which is just a bit of a pain in the brain.
I'm interviewing and registering for a school this week (if all goes well I'll be starting up an 18 month Brooks College animation, and 3d modeling program in October!) and then I'll try to get a few more this weekend. If you are looking for specific models that you know were free then maybe someone else can find them, or you can mention them here and I'll try to verify those first.

@vendetta - Az did not want anyone to host these and only allowed me because, frankly, he was up against a wall with his host; we're actually lucky that a few people have them because they aren't available from his site and he has been out of touch. He very specifically asked for the rating system and a disclaimer page that users had to accept before going to the models page. He also didn't want users to be able to link directly to the files and bypass the disclaimer. I had this setup on my old site. I know this may sound old fashioned but that's what I agreed to and since this isn't a life or death situation, I feel compelled to honor that agreement. Unless he responds to my emails and says it is ok then I'm just going to have to do it this way. Hmmm.... maybe I can set up a second copy of Olate Download Manager .... I set one up at http://moho.stormvisions.com and it does allow licenses before downloads .... it is a little buggy and version 3 is coming out very soon. Let me think on it .... if someone is using websitebaker cms and knows php and can modify the downloads mod for me then please pm me. [EDIT: I had a thought and managed to finally find the license info and model info (just not the images or actual files) in one of the archived copies at the waybackmachine.org -most seem to be missing those pages as someone purchased my old domain name and it goes there. I made pdf's of the pages so I can at least read the license info and will post the rest of the free ones in the next day or two (remember I said school tomorrow). I'll try again to get someone familar with my CMS to help me modify the download links so I can add the license stuff -didn't get any takers last time but never know.]

That's awesome. I had forgotten there were that many. As I posted earlier, I have many of them and now that I'm able to determine which ones were his work, and which one's need further protections, I can get to work on getting the site set up to provide adequate safeguards. I'll more than likely have it set up in a similar fashion to what is displayed in the pdf's. The delay on my end was not being able to determine which models were in these sets, and because I knew that even though he was responsible for porting a lot of them over, he wasn't the original artist, and that there was contact info that need to be passed on to the person downloading the models. As a result, I was reluctant to make them available until I had it all nailed down. Unfortunately, some of these things, however awesome they are, fall under that last category and as such, I would not feel comfortable posting them for download.
