august06.com
go to august06.com
it wont work the first time. it will say the access limit has been exceeded or something. do it again and it takes you to a photo album with some weird pics and weirder captions. seriously creepy stuff. It looks like one of the pics has the first password, but I don't know which.

yeh, the pic with the bottle and the metal case, but I can read the writing, the second character doesn't even look like an english letter
Looks like the CIA
is using domestic hacking, eith that or others may be doing the same, from within apple.
I'd say someone needs to check who modified the page and hire them. Or, check all those augustxx.com site for hidden messages in the photos in the gallery... what is it, stenography?
"Check the NYT classifieds" ... sounds too made up for a intelligence operation (roll eyes here).

I did some poking around... followed some clues, ended up at 209.46.98.251, googled for 209.46.98.251 and found:
http://www.bmwfilms-hq.com/
that page says this stuff:
I found a story or subplot, or something that is connected to BMWs films. Its like the subplots, only its on the web instead of in a film. I put 2 and 2 together right away because Ive watched the films so many times. Unless you did to, some things wont make sense right away. When in doubt, check with Ben. 🙂
Go here to see deciphernaut: 209.46.98.251
The number's also a phone number: (209) 469-8251
1. Bookmark this page. I dont see anyone else offering to help you figure this out.
2. Keep track of what you find, everywhere you go, things you do, everyone you meet.
3._ Check out my short comments on the films and subplot theories to get familiar with BMWs films.
4. When I have more, youll be the first to know.
5. Buckle up. Were in for a ride.
6. The anniversary date is tricky. Use august06.com. Or 080690.com I tried it on a whim and it worked.
7. If you get to a nikonnet album, go to activities to see the guestbook. I was the first one to sign it!
8. If you land on a blank page, click around or try highlighting the page to find stuff._
9. I figured out you need to add ".com" to a number found on a Gift Registry page. That will bring you to a familiar location._
10. If you find a bunch of code that doesnt make sense, look closer theres an address hidden in the code. Make contact.
--NEW--
11. Watch for kanns tag - :K:.
12. The ad for the car in NY Times is in the National Classifieds section.
13. If you see a phone number in an email, go back to the nikonnet album for directions on using the number.
14. Track the package.
15. If you land on a page for a mortgage company, hunt around, its there.
______
There you go. Not a hacker or anything, just a tiny clue as part of a huge online puzzle. Simple. I'm guessing that MPEG4 page has a clue of some sort 🙂
Enjoy!!

Clue from 713-266-7288
I live in Houston co I called the number amd it starts out like a voice mail box for an FBI agent then goes to static and tells you the first key is e4c6. Then says look for Kahn at apple.com/mpeg4 and flips back to the voice mail message.
