On the subject of the strange text: We could try running through some ciphers, no? It seems like you were spot on with the Hex code, but it can't hurt to try a few, right?

And on the subject of the strange...almost tribal clip of sound, I'll run it by some friends. (native and even some guys over in Australia) see what they think.

Sorry if I kinda barged into this thread here, just thought I'd try and help.

Well...the cipher's didn't do much. Whatever I got made less sense than the Hex code....

Still waiting on replys from the Australians, but the natives didn't get anything out of the clip.

It works better if you run the videos at the same time. i'm going to get some friends over ad we'll all try to figure it out.

Yshk

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but, speaking of Australia, "YSHK" appears to be the ICAO code for an airport on the west coast of Australia at a place called "Shark Bay":

Gads but wouldn't it be nice if this were going down tonight...

Then it would probably just be another publicity stunt for the season premier of Lost.

But no, of course it has to be on Friday the 13th...

I've been looking at the eye image in the center and -- maybe this is wishful thinking or whatever -- but does anyone else see a face in the highlight? Here it is slightly sharpened and circled:


It could certainly be an illusion produced by the "cracks" on the image, but since a couple of the messages mention a "him", and that looks to me like a male (possibly bearded) face, I think it's worth noting at least.

Here it is zoomed in and sharpened a bit more:

Whoa! I don't know if anyone else has seen this yet, I haven't on the main page there, so I think I'll post it.

I was browsing through the media tab in Firefox on that site, and I saw the files yshkla.swf and yshlanti.swf. We know those as the the .swfs with the flashing Greek(?) letters.

I went to replace yshklanti.swf with yshkgai.swf (I was just thinking of the three fragments in the first post here.

This is what I got. Doesn't seem like much, just...a count-up (wtf?)

The REALLY weird thing is that I actually couldn't find this in the tab. Maybe I just need to look harder.

Just though I'd show this. Sorry if its been found already.


Also, there's a /images/ directory in the site,but we're blocked from access. That's where the swf was, though. Any hackers here? (not that I would endorse such an act)

The countup looks like it's made to replace the eye and the videos once everything starts.

The countup also appears in the top right of the home page on Google's cached version:
http://72.14.209.104/search?q=cache:tO4q7T9R14QJ:www.746865656e64.com/

I saw that earlier, but I figured everyone else already had since it was cached on September 30. I decompiled, but I couldn't tell if it's counting up to anything.

This page seems to be changing pretty quickly. Earlier, there was a broken image with the URL http://www.746865656e64.com/images/bot.gif , which goes to a 404 error page.

As of about an hour ago, the main page has been edited so that no longer appears. The server reports the page was modified at 18:23:13 (UTC - 4).

Hello all, I came from the ATS boards...

Evidently, someone is keeping a constant check on this site as well as ATS ...

I pointed out the statement a little bit ago on ATS...about the bot.gif being an error in the design....

Then they come right in and fix it.....

Keep looking for info, and I will frequent here as well to compare notes...!!
