Getting Around Location Restrictions
In most cases, users in the United States will be blocked from viewing the footage on the non-NBC sites. But you may be able to view clips or streams from other countries if you use a proxy server located within that country, or if you can otherwise trick the streaming server into thinking you're from a country where it's allowed.

There's some advice on this topic at Metafilter.

The easiest way for those not interested in paying or dealing with geo-limits is to go to Proxy.org for a list of proxies, organized by country.

Peer-to-Peer Options If you want to move beyond bite-size recaps and highlight reels, P2P sites are your best bet for backdoor access to unedited blocks of Olympics footage.

Recording Events Online WM Capture. If you're looking to make recordings of certain events to save forever, transfer to an iPod, or import into a video editing program, you'll need to use a on-screen video recording program like WM Capture. NBC is streaming using Microsoft's Silverlight, which has an encrypted stream, making streaming videos hard to capture digitally. WM Capture is especially well suited for high quality recordings, as it uses a proprietary high speed MPEG-2 codec for fast video capture from any region on your PC's screen.
