This has always been the case -- http://www.nessus.org/register/ has  
always redirected to that page (or which links are you talking  
about?). Just enter your email address over there and you will  
receive an activation code by email.

Once you obtain this activation code, just type :

        nessus-fetch --register <code>

and your Nessus 2.2 scanner will be registered (as 'nessus-fetch -- 
check' will tell you).

We do not intend to phase out 2.2.x at all. Actually, 2.2.7 will be  
released in early january and will contain numerous fixes for bugs  
which have been spotted during the Nessus 3.0 developement cycle.
