There's a Russian website that has a ton of sheet music, but it is extremely slow (it peaks at around 500 bytes/sec). It does have the Bartok Sonata, but I don't know about the etudes. Here is the link:

thank you so much for the link! I'm downloading the sonata right now-I suppose I'll probably have to purchase the etudes.
