Are you sure you mean CVS and not SVN (aka Subversion)?

CVS is ancient and almost no project uses it anymore! MOGRE uses Subversion and you don't need a password. You will need TortoiseSVN for it. The URL to enter into TortoiseSVN's checkout is "https://mogre.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mogre/trunk";

Ciao, Imi.
PS: If you are sure that you meant CVS and if it really needs a password, then you have to ask in the forum of the project whose source you want to download.
