Hmmm. I took a look at this game. As far as I can tell, Abuse is one of those games where the source code and resources for the first 4 share-ware levels (except some sound effects) have been put into the public domain by the original developers and publishers:
http://web.archive.org/web/20030610094112/abu … lic_domain.php3
Someone then went to the effort of using the public domain code and data, and produced various ports of the game named Free Abuse (fRaBs):

http://www.abuse-game.com/
I downloaded something called v. 2.10 from
http://www.abuse-game.com/index.php?option=co … id=47&Itemid=58
but the Zip-archive is corrupt. The v. 2.00 archive appears to be fine.
Once the v 2.00 archive has been extracted, ABUSE.EXE seems to run fine DOSBox 0.73.
