Need Cisco IOS for emulation

I am doing some lab exercise in GNS3. Therefore I need IOS for the 2800 series routers and 2960/3560 switches. I also need the IOS for Cisco 1921-SEC/K9 Router. Does anyone know where to get those? I tried to register on Cisco's website and download the IOS for the 2800 series router, but got an error messages that goes like this:
"Service Contract Required: To Download this software, you must have a valid service contract associated to your Cisco.com profile."

There are a lot of false download options on Google. Takes time to go through them all. Here is one that works for the 2800 and 2900 series router: http://smacked.org/downloads/
No need to go through them all, just until you find what you need.

And again - many images are not stable in GNS3. So, some errors that you can experience could be from emulator and you can loose hours solving problem that is caused by bad emulation (at least, I know I did).
