I've wanted to know that myself....I've gotten a couple before where they want you to go sign up at their forums, then make atleast 3 posts and after which you'll get access to the 'password' area to unlock the thing.......what the **** is the point of forcing people to sign up in which they'll simply spam then leave.

Don't know of a way to get by it, but I wish I knew myself for those rare occasions that the same thing that happens to me.
