running 68040 software on a 68030 machine (7.6)

Hi folks...
 
I am running a Color Classic II board with about 35 MBs of memory in my Color Classic.  I am still using the original screen rez of 512 × 384. My OS is 7.6.1
 
A buddy gave me a game, but it needs a 68040 processor to run.  I read some place (long ago) about some software you can run on your computer that will make software that requires a 68040 processor to run in your 68030 machine.
 
Can any one direct me to this software?
 
My Color Classic is on line, so I hope this web site can be accessed with my old copy of Netscape......
 
Thanks

I got a "this connect has timed out" error message when I try to access this page.  Other pages seem to load OK.  I will try it again later.  Thanks for the tip.

Looks like the guys payment methoid is from about 1997.  I will send him email and see if he is still around.  The software goes dead about abvout 20 days unless you pay.  I don't mind paying.  Sounds good to me....
