You can get at the Oxford English Dictionary for free. Yay. Unfortunately you have to use this backdoor thing. Don't tell anyone.

Robots.cnn.com is a mirror of CNN, without the ads. (It looks like they use it for web crawlers.) This reminds me of channel.nytimes.com, the backdoor for the New York Times that allows you to skip registration for almost every story. Anyone know of any other major media backdoors?

More news on the IIS exploit After acknowledging the problem last week, Micro$oft is now saying that the backdoor in IIS... is a flaw. M$ Technet seems to have a fix for this problem, delete the offending file! So, if systems are your bag, my advice is to start researching security if you are running M$ internet server products (SQL 7, Exchange, IIS, Index Server, etc.).
