Interesting.   I was able to log in on Sat from home, check out the instructions
for the HotRod, and save them.  But when I try to log in here, I just get the page
reloaded.  I also don't see the URL you are referring to in the source code for
the login page.

I also couldn't find the supercar.asp page on the Lego site (though I didn't spend
a lot of time looking).  What links did you use to get to it?

Our position is that only images or material which are clearly accessible
through normal navigational means (i.e. by following hyperlinks from the home

“discovered” (either by accident or intent), then the publication of the
location of that material is a copyright violation (one could argue that the
listing of the hyperlink to that material is tantamount to publishing the
material itself). And if material was once available (through normal
navigational means), but no longer is, than it, too, is out of bounds.

There is a supercar web page at http://www.lego.com/advanced/supercar.asp with
a password box.  By typing in either "LT8448" or "lt8448", it should take you
to the following pages.  The problem is that even if you type in the correct
password, you are not able to continue due to some unknown error.  One can
easily see this by reading the javascript source code.  One can also read the
URL of the site where you should end up after typing in the password.  Would
it be illegal to post the URL of that site?  There is no direct hyperlink to
this site other than going through this password screen which doesn't work.
Hmmmm...By posting this URL, it would certainly violate the copyright.
