I'll remove it and re-post.

Duh... I TRIED that password. Damn case sensitivity...

*EDIT*
I can't remove the password; my password remover has expired. Doing so will throw up a dialog, so there's no point.

Here's the text for the cheap seats...

Quote:
In early February ZEVS found an increasingly stronger signal coming from South America [-46.963619,-73.958931]. Naval analysts were sure that these signals were similar to the ones we use to communicate with our own submarines. We sent a team of Spetznaz to this location and indeed we found a small facility hidden in the Mountains.

With permission from the FSB, we raided these military installations to find it heavily defended and operating under no flag. Their physical appearance was northern European and Asian. There were several civilian scientist and technicians. It seems that those of low rank were immediately killed by their own security forces to ensure they would not be captured. Those of higher rank unsuccessfully attempted to escape, however we were unable to capture any of them alive.

Most of the installation computers and hardware self detonated. We were able to recover 3 working mainframes and 14 laptops, as well as a book and documents that seemed to be important. One of our submarines provided transport for this evidence; however for unknown reasons we lost communications with them in the south Atlantic. In 72 Hours we will know if the submarine was indeed sunk in the coordinates given earlier. From the cargo, we only have the picture of the book (Fig. 6).

ETA - so, we know what's in the PDF now, we didn't need the book for that. The book is for the Institute's communication, which was already fairly obvious but no mistaking now.

Jeez, the only thing I tried was "siberia" in lower case, then I thought "Nah, can't be bothered with this". Typical Rolling Eyes

Well er... this gets more and more interesting, yet confusing. So add to the mix a mysterious group of scientists/an armed force operating under "no flag". So could be an independant group, or a group covertly operating for a government but not overtly, or of course... aliens in disguise...

Well, I've checked the sound file, any my girlfriend helped me to understand that Japanese, so here - perhps - the right text

これから私が権威と象徴を私が担う。 (From this time I'll carry on my shoulder power and symbol(?))

Lucky. The last email I got from Ilya was air_ebis :/

How come my contact with everyone has stopped so suddenly? I haven't talked to ANY of the characters yet (Well, except for that one time I sent the K.O.I. pic to Mary/Ellie, but she hasn't responded yet, so... Razz)

Whereas I haven't had any contact with anyone either, and have got every email up to now that didn't have a large attachment, obviously due to my addy. So I dunno, not complaining, but I feel guilty now Razz

New email, I got this which translates into:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I AM ONE OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OFFICERS ASSIGNED TO THIS. WHY ARE YOU SENDING INFORMATION LIKE THIS? USE THE CIPHER MACHINE. YOU HAVE BEEN TRANSFERED TO SERVE UNDER A SPECIAL DIRECTORATE UNDER THE Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation. KEEP THIS LINE OPEN, SEEMS LIKE YOU HAD NOT TRAINING AT ALL.


I need someone who knows how to use the cipher to decode this message so I can send it to them:

Sorry, I am new to this unit and I only understand binary (had to use cypher for the Hex) Can you re send the information you sent to the director, I seem to have deleted it.

Request.

Can someone point to the wiki linking all the known clues so far? It seems something is missing from analysis.

Dunno, Illi... my Ilya mail started going to spam for some reason, perhaps yours did too?
