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!

From the Cisco website:
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
<snip>
* This incident does not appear to be due to a weakness in Cisco
products or technologies. 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. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
