If I remember right, there wasn't so much a URL given, as they told you
where to click on the special Codebreaker page (I think it said 'click
on the dot' or something along those lines) that was up for a while,
after which you got to a new page with a long UR statement.

Here's how I think the story unfolded:

There was a special Codebreaker section on the Submerge website that at 
first appeared to be nothing but a blank page, but it had a secret link 
hidden behind a single dot on the page.  The Morse code in the track said 
"click on the dot", which revealed a page written by the Unknown Writer 
about codebreaking and resistance.

A listmember decrypted the code and forwarded it to 313 and everybody 
accessed the site.  A day later, a message from Submerge appeared on the 
site and on 313, saying something along the lines of 'the code had been 
broken and the mission compromised' and that the site had been taken down 
(although another listmember had saved the page and forwarded it to 313 
afterwards).

Surely you all know about the Internet Archives' WayBack Machine?

I don't know when the Codebreaker sekrit page appeared, so I don't
know which one of these archived links might possibly have it stashed away.

Happy spelunking,
