How does that work, exactly?

At least as of a little while ago, it was a Java applet that downloads the
game executable and files to your machine and runs them without any form of
protection.

This isn't so much different than downloading the game yourself and
running it, is it?
You still make the conscious decision to click on a specific game,
with the knowledge that it'll do this.


Exactly =)
