The words/numbers on the flash pages that aren't in the keyword list are:
"if you you The is of the 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9"
(There are two "is"'s in the flash)

The only word/number in that keyword list that doesn't appear on any of the flash pages that I've seen is "text".


PS They misspelled "Flu" as "Flue" on the NorBAC website under breaking news. And we're supposed to trust these guys to be our "first response" to bio-whatever in North America?

PPS If you click "Press Releases" on the NorBAC site, there are three containers pictured at the top, all of which seem to be labeled "Carbolix" I googled Carbolix and got nothing. What is Carbolix? Or am I reading it wrong?

 		There is a great deal of interresting stuff in the SWF... Try decompiling it.

 		Isn't decompiling flash generally out-of-bounds in an arg?

 		Some say it is, some say it isn't. Personally I think it's fair game... you look at the source of all the html pages you visit so why not in the swfs too.

If PMs want to hide something then they should play with creative ways of doing it in the Flash.

What have you found? I'm quite curious and I can't find a decompiler that works.

 		COMPLETE SPOILER
this is the whole ball of wax, from A-Z

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
you have to do these in different orders. Try it one way, then start over, ect....

Page one. hit the 'home' key. takes you to part two, you'll see a yellow dot, hit home again. this takes you to what i call the tv page. click the button, then watch, then hit the other button. the trick is to do it in the right order, or you have to re-read it all. the secret on this page is at the very end of the scrolling text, the group of buttons on the right, the left one becomes a button for only a second. keep your mouse over it and you'll see when. this takes you to archimedes, the great greek mathmatician. By clicking the fulcrum, you get anohter sequence. hit it again, greek text appears. It translates to: 'Give me a place to stand, and I shall move the earth"

Back to alternate paths..... on page two, with the yellow button. Above the button is a text box. Click it, and type Konami , note the caps. This takes you to what I call the N.E.S. page. What you're looking at is an old nintendo controller. You actually put in the old cheat code to the konami game 'Contra' the sequence is: u,u,d,d,l,r,l,r, right circle, left circle, left dash, right dash. This is the end. last note, the sound file is the same as the greek text.


I am new to the whole ARG community, and I AM IN LOVE! This schtuff is right up my alley. The peole here are so bright, and the puzzles so unique. I hope I will be a welcome addition to your hunts.

I have only really checked out the ARG with AME, and the Italian poster. I am working on some images from that post, hope I can help. In any case, I'm really glad I found this site. I'm looking forward to some good mind F****S.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to I.M. me at yahoo: tommymcgrarh

 		maybe some people just aren't meant to get it... i thought that would make it blatantly obvious to anyone... no offense, people, i'm almost just as lost as any, but the spoiler above gives it in plain detail what to do...

Thanks for the help. No offense, but instead of being an ass and waving it in our faces, why not just help the people out who dont know what to do when they dont see any kind of 'home' key?
