You’re browsing the web and you click a link to an article on a site (let’s say nytimes.com) but instead of getting the article you get a screen asking you to login or register. Most of the time I don’t really use my real information to register. I can easily use a temporary disposable email address to sign up and then verify my membership in order to be a member of the website. I think the biggest reason why most of us don’t like registering to view full contents is we don’t want to give people our real information away. Imagine if every site in the world required registration to access content! That’d really be annoying and the whole world has your info!

Here’s a very useful website which “shares” logins so you don’t need to waste your time in registering an account to access a website that requires compulsory registration.

Avoid website registration
BugMeNot.com was created as a mechanism to quickly bypass the login of web sites that require compulsory registration and/or the collection of personal/demographic information (such as the New York Times). All of the username and password listed on BugMeNot are added by users. So if the first login don’t work, you can try the second one. If you can’t find a working login for a site then you can register with that site using fake details and then do BugMeNot a favor by adding to the list for other users to use.

To find login for a website, just visit BugMeNot.com, type the website address and click on the “Get Logins” button. It will then show you the list of logins found with username, password and also the success rate. If you see a low percentage of success rate, chances are it won’t work. So don’t bother wasting your time in trying to use that login.
Search BugMeNot login

Some websites such as pay-per-view which require users to pay money to access the site, banking and e-commerce websites can be blocked from BugMeNot system by easily submitting a request form. At least we know that BugMeNot is not a website that shares all sorts of hacked passwords. It’s for our own convenience.

Currently BugMeNot has logins for 162679 sites. Unfortunately, there is no way to view the list of websites that has logins on BugMeNot. You can only do a search from BugMeNot website.

To make Firefox users life easier, there’s a great plugin that works with BugMeNot. Simply install the plugin, then visit any website such as New York Times website and click on the login. You’ll then see a form which ask you to input the Member ID or E-Mail Address and Password. RIGHT CLICK in a username or password text field to see the option “Login with BugMeNot“. Click on it and it’ll automatically search for logins from BugMeNot and automatically input into the text field.
Login with BugMeNot

You can access some of the options in BugMeNot extension by going to Tools -> Add-ons and click on the Options button when you highlight BugMeNot. By default, all four options are unchecked and in my opinion, it’s the best setting already.
Bypass Website Registration

Please note that BugMeNot’s Firefox extension is NOT created by BugMeNot. It is created by Eric from RoachFiend.
