Hmm let me guess... Too many people uploaded "bad" pictures of theirs to the site to the point that Lexus felt necessary to make the site viewable only to those who obtained user/pass by first passing a "credit card check".

Sick, was that you?

At least the TomCat site at port 8080 works.
http://www.thenewis.com:8080/

Could just be the ticket to hack into the root filesystem and retrieve those files served on port 80.

This is getting stupid. The link is even on the Lexus home page now with a sizeable banner but the site remains password-protected. You'd think that they'd make sure that the site is actually working before putting the link in their front page. Not the best demonstration of Lexus' technological marvels if you ask me. Apparently their IT guys just aren't very bright.

Hmm so it was removed. Took them half a day to notice that the site that the link on the home page points to still doesn't work. Oh well.

I guess by the time the mosaic site is up, people will be submitting pictures with themselves AND their own new IS's.
