So the answer is:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Lithium
Mycroft got it after some serious abstract thinking

I had to make it all lowercase
I want to know how you guys got to it !
In the meanwhile, I set up http://pharmament.wikidot.com/start but will probably add content and categories tomorrow morning. For now, see if you can join it, if you want.

well, The page says Peace of mind... (Nirvana)
and then Benjamin was a kloo to Breaking Benjamin who did a cover of nirvana
and the 5 00000 's were figured to be the track (Lithium)
and I think the 3 by the 4 thing was an atomic numeral that equated to lithium...
Taladan was also very close with his brainstorm...
All around good work

Wow, well done all. I looked at it for about 2 hours and couldn't come up with anything.

The one joy of being time zone challenged: waking up to a puzzle mega-solve. Swell work to all in IRC.

nothing yet - no email, or twitter messages. haven't noticed anything different on the sites either so i guess we are waiting until dave is ready to let us know what was in his brother's blog site.
just as an extra bit of explanation on the last solve - 'number 5' related to the fifth track on the album 'nevermind', which is the song 'lithium'.
i'm still not 100% sure on the reason for the '00000' line.

I'm busy catching up on the wiki.. but I wonder if we're supposed to use the info from the last 3 puzzles and find the next step on our own.
Dave said Dan had a blog on the site he took over (gunspiracy) in his first 'post'..
...also.. anyone tried logging into the hotmail.co.uk account using any of the passwords (or a combination) we got so far ?
Just thinking out loud..
..and while I'm writing the wiki entry on Gunspiracy... there's two mugshots on that page... do they match or are they slightly different? Which one is Dave, which one is Dan (if they are different) ?
