the current version is 4.3 and the installer is password protected. You can download it freely from intergraph site. http://geospatial.intergraph.com/products/other/ecw/erdasecwjpeg2000sdk/downloads/ERDAS_ECW_JP2_SDK_Desktop_Read-Only_Version_4_3.aspx the licensing agreement and the rest of the literature are here http://geospatial.intergraph.com/products/other/ecw/erdasecwjpeg2000sdk/ProductLiterature.aspx I really hope to get the ECW support back in GDAL and QGIS before v2 release.
