No, it means that the password scheme of whatever the web-site uses to allow
access or not is not directly a Cisco product. It means it's something that
could happen to anyone.
One could have a great network of great products and all it takes is one
small door to remain open someplace in a seemingly unrelated issue to bring
down the house.
Bummer on the IOS download part, but that would be crappy timing, not
necessarily a correlation!

Does this mean that CCO is not a Cisco product or technology?
Odd that lots of people are trying to download new IOS images and then CCO
locks them out.
