I saw on another forum that the poster would not look at a post here as he had to register first. I would not register with a site just to read the result of a search either. The page which comes up is not very visitor friendly.

There is also nothing on the forum page to indicate this requirement. Clicking on a forum link says that it contains no posts. Can this be updated?

As an alternative, can the method of typing in an obscured code be used to allow access without registration? It seems to be coming quite common as here (Click View Complete Forum button)
