And full numeric keypad is a must. If you have just a laptop keyboard, it may take some more thinking...

glouton : post move from "Your opinion" to here where I think it's more its place.

Since, I am using a laptop, can someone point me in the right direction? I'm down to the last key and my xor result just doesn't seem to add up to anything meaningful!!

If you're stuck with a laptop keyboard with no way of using a numpad, you might want to look up what the numpad on a PC keyboard does, and how you could use it to your advantage.

Many have pased this level without any previous specific knowledge. Note that you can't "xor" something you only "xor" one thing with another. Once you've got those things, read again your search results and it should appears as easy as one and one is two.

Hello, I've managed to work out everything up to the last step, i have some seemingly unusual set of 7 letters and I'm trying to work out how to use the last step to make sense of them.

Any hints?

[phreakymonkey]

Sounds like you've added a step that wasn't there.

I tried converting "un*****" into BINARY and using the BINARY characters as the key, then converting the results into HEX, and those results into ASCII, but the answer isn't actually a word, and it doesn't work as the password. I didn't get stuck for anywhere over an hour on "japanese" or even on the front, left and right chatrooms, but this one has me stumped. Am I making it more complicated than it is, or am I doing something wrong? Am I missing a step?

No and yes.

Am I missing a step?

More than likely.

The answer lies in the clue. To understand the clue, is to understand the riddle.
Have you tried reading all the previous post to this thread? This thread should really be closed.
There are more than enough clues given.

alright, i got a little ways, but i dont understand the XOR stuff at all. Ive read through wikipedia, and its just jibberish to me so i am stuck

Hi all,

I think I understand the steps in the Clue - Converting from u** to D** to B***** is simple enough providing you have the correct U**

And that's my problem, I'm getting lost in the U** some place - is it the U**'s for each of Level 06 and 20?  and if so...is it the complete U** or just the f*******?  and then with or without the e********?

can someone point me in the right direction?  Seems every combination i've tried leads nowhere.

Thanx in advance

Look where the first arrow is coming from.

ok I have scoured this board and I'm feeling mighty dim witted I sure do need a nudge I have converted the u** to d** then b** but don't have a clue what to use for the xor key. Hey I'm not even sure I am working with the right u** to begin with although I have seen the 7 letter reference often enough to think I am ok there. So I guess I just need a nudge to figure out what to use for the xor key I think,,,lol
Any response would be appreciated.

If you're having trouble finding information on a certain encryption subject, try adding the word 'cipher' to your query.
