Hey guys,

This is the first ARG I have ever followed, but I hope I can help.

I took the info from the email above, and there were sections coded in hex, then octal, then binary (someone already posted the binary, but I will repeat it here:

in the hex:

Swiss International Account Holdings first quarter 2005

in the octal:

--
account--A & A Actienbank access

netadmin
macstern j.
--
account--Banque Pasche SA access

netadmin
amblin h.
--
account--Interregiobank access

netadmin
jonson p.
--
account--MediBank access

netadmin
arnold s.

in the binary:

--
account--Redsafe Bank access

netadmin
stewart l.
--
account--schmidt bank access

netadmin
hamil w.
Patig M. K.
--
account--Swissquote Bank access

netadmin
Stewart l.

I don't know where to go from here yet...

Hey groves, what did you use to convert everything? I had no problem finding the binary thing, but these sites claiming to convert hex and octal are too complicated. I'd like to know how to do it for the futre.

I hate it when that happens.. I solve a puzzle and someone posts the solution about 10 seconds before I do.

I decoded it with my own program. If anyone wants the source code, let me know. It's a quickie hack I wrote just for this solution.

I've been wondering how people get source codes.

In explorer or navigator right click on the page and then click view source.
