[PUZZLE - SOLVED] Snoochy

Since the clues for this puzzle are stewn about several threads, I figured I'd consolodate them. Of course, thanks go to the original posters.

At 5pm EST on 6-Oct-04, the Project Gateway homepage was updated to version 1.4. This lead to a new command.
Finding the new command

The command takes us to a screen with a picture of an orangutan with a "Hello My Name Is" nametag on its chest.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The phrase "Snoochy Boochies" is from the movie Mallrats. The name of the orangutan in that film Susanne.

In the HTML of this page, there is another "name tag": CS1097099239435

The HTML makes reference to a "chant.wav" but AFAIK, that file has not been located yet.

At 12:01 AM EST on 7-Oct-04, the transformation was complete, and apparently included more than just the Project Gatway homepage. The 32nd Notes page was also updated

There was at least one interesting development concerning this page:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

There was a new song on the music page entitle "Oh Susanna" with the code 85'w u7w5 r04 607 next to it. This is a keyboard cypher that translates to "It's just for you"

Also...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Within the plain-text of the Oh-Susanna mp3 was:
18273645 1.010000 2.460000 18273645 1.010000 2.460000 FC396901 1:41
C:\Program Files\Accessoires\FC396901.mp3

I don't know if that is relevant to the puzzle or if that text is standard fair for the mp3 encoder that was used. Notice that "Accessoires" is a spelling mistake though. If it was part of the encoding, it wouldn't work very well!

Speculation

According to the [Chat] Cyb3rStr1k3 #ProjectGateway 10/06/04 11:00 - 11:30, Cyb3rSt1k3 said:

Dividing the numbers posted above, especially the one prefixed with "CS" may come into play.

We found a key. This puzzle is solved.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

After listening to the chant.wav we found out that psychic.key was cammoed inside Oh Suzanna.mp3. The chant file was Jay, from Jay and Silent Bob, singing about smokin' weed, so the key turned out to be "Jay"
The key has been sent...

Actually I knew the answer all the time....... Snoogans..... Wink
