The Login boxes at LRR have a hardcoded javascript which does not allow entry.

The submit button leads us to http://iannet.lastresortretrieval.com/ which seems to be empty, but I suspect there are hidden files/folders because login.cgi exists and redirects us to the homepage.

EDIT: Not to be outdone by Ian, Nisha also has a Net: http://nishanet.lastresortretrieval.com/ with a server side username/password

As somone noticed somewhere else, the image in the background of the Last Resort site looks to have some kind of map in it. Look at the top part of the image, above the Caravaggio.
I may be wrong, but I think it's part of a Japanese map of the Paris subway.
Possibly the part from the Tour Eiffel to Pont Neuf, but this just is a wild speculation, I compared the image with a bunch of actual Paris maps and it's far from a perfect match.

Ok we've been locked out and now it's password protected Sad

Anyway it clearly means we weren't supposed to find it yet, but at least we know how much potential this thing has.

Just a note to anyone who grabbed some of it or has it cached.. DON'T post it or discuss it.. Keep it to yourself--I'm sure we'll get to it in due time, and at least you have something to look forward to Smile

you can of course try and figure out the password..

I'm fairly certain the Flash at http://www.lastresortretrieval.com/ is new. It cycles through multiple artworks now.

yes, it's new. The first version featured a fixed image, Caravaggio's Bacco.
I'm trying to identify all the paintings portrayed in the current Flash; There is at least another Caravaggio, maybe more than one, and at first glance the style suggests that most ofthe paintings are from Italian painters between 1450 and 1650; maybe there's also a Rembrandt, and I have little or no idea about a couple of them. I'll do some more research, just in case this may hide a clue.

I sent an e-mail to IanSPLATlastresortretrieval.com that said the following...

'What do you really do? How do you get the paintings back from the theif? Why has the last resort retrieval site changed? Are the paintings in the flash paintings you and Nisha have 'rescued'?'

so... I await an anwser...
