The odd letters only show up when you copy and paste.

Is that referring to one of the other files? Possibly ktg01.txt?

Check out the text

If you change the color of the original text in word the hidden letters come up as superscripted & are spread throughout the text.

The Russian idea is a good one, I think. If you check out the file in the "My Travel" folder of the SD card data, it appears to be encrypted using a program called KremlinEncrypt (from the .kgb extension).

Doesn't look Russian to me. For a start there's an 0 in the middle of the first conversion, and a symbol in the other. Razz

Binary is a base 2 number. What's shown there is just the ASCII representaion of that number. It could be a pure binary number, a binary coded decimal (BCD) number, Unicode, or EBCDIC. Or, it could be something completly different.

I'm scripting a quick converter in PHP because I can't find anything from Google, I'll post again with a link to it when I'm done.

[Edit] Damn my bad grammar.

key below

as I posted in another thread, possible superficial passwords obtained from this are:

"key below"

"below"

"85463"

"85463M"

i also just thought of:

"sm5nc463"

which are approximately the characters underneath which "key below" appears.

"Key below" and various numbers in the message... maybe we shold look at the keys placed below each one of the numbers 8, 5, 4, 6 and 3? On my keyboard this could be "itrye" or "uretw" but since I use an Italian layout keyboard maybe you guys from the US should check it out.

That's a very good idea.

Assuming the letter offset indicates which direction on the keyboard to look.

h85ew463 yields
birdseye

Now where to use it?
