I just IMed OV and got this

Interesting.(Indeed.).

http://www.thematrixisreal.com/f5/big.html

Its a pic clearly symbolizing our "burning question".

So what is the matrix eh?

Also, it appears to be some kinda of a message board.

Theres a riddle at the bottom.

"I am deaf. I am dumb. I am blind. What am I?"

There is some text I cant quite get to.

Strange. Indeed

Hoy, sorry for being away all.To answer your questions, I found out about /f5/ simply by asking OhVerisimilitude, and he told me. OhVerisimilitude is the webmaster of TMIR, aka Sachchit.

*EDIT* The black text on black background reads: "Hello. You can find one without the other. Until next time, Toodle-Oo! (:"
Toodle-Oo! Smile (Note the difference in how the smiley face faces) is what OV always says before he signs off AIM.

I am currently thinking it is hexidecimal - but I am currently stumped for what it is hexidecimal for. the patern of zero's have just given me a clue

5 hexidecimal numbers of 2 bytes in length each.

So what if that's the password? It says it's not a puzzle, maybe it means it. Any ideas for the username?
