I only just found out that I was supposed to give a different URL:
http://www.informit.com/promotions/promotion.aspx?promo=137519
This leads to a web page where you can download the document (just by
clicking the "Download Now" button), but if you _choose_ you can also
enter your name and email to win some sort of prize.
