I'd already worked it out, but thanks.

I'd actually turned the fale to positive previously, then went back and thought "D'OH!"

I can't past Level 5. I worked out one answer (minnie / moocher) that didn't work, and I have no idea what else it could be really. Apparently there's 100+ levels. Should keep us all bussy for a while.

I know how to get past level 4, but for whatever reason, my solution isn't properly translated.

Im TOTALLY stuck on level 11, with no clue whatsoever what I am supposed to do. I could google around and look for answer (cheat), but that would totally spoil the challenge. I want to figure it out myself.. :x

Some advice for these riddles. Look everywhere, and I mean everywhere.. the adress bar, the title of the page, open the pic in a image editing program, the source code.. everywhere. Often there are stuff hidden in the page or files on the website. You just gotta figure out where.

Ok, time for some hints..

Level 1: This one should be easy.. search the picture..

Level 2: This one is a bit more tricky. Something is covering the doorknob. There are ways to get around that, but the simple way is probably just take a close look at the URL..

Level 3: Stare at the picture.. and something happens. Try to read what it says, thats an important hint
.. if that does not help.. negative is the opposite of positive..
- again.. take a close look at the URL

Level 4: The title says "look in the dark". And certainly, there are stuff in that picture that is hidden..
- try opening the pic in and image editor, increase brightness
- under the lamp. Whats that? Looks like some sort of code..

Level 5: ok, so we see an album cover with the name of a band.. and were asked for the name of a song
- again take a close look at the URL. Thats the lyrics from a song..

Level 6: This one had me stumped for a while, because I was looking at the wrong place. But its definitely a "doh" moment once you realise it..
- take a look at the source code. There is a hint there
- there is something hidden on the page, other than the picture..
- the username/PW box also gives a hint

Level 7: This one is very, VERY nasty. Mostly because I did not even recognise it was a "Twix" candy paper had to cheat to figure that part out :(
- again, look at source code for hints
- "times have changed in deutschland". You will need to find the old name for "Twix". Its a German candy with long traditions
- take really close look at the URL, read it backwards
- you have to do something with the URL to advance

Level 8: Again, extremely tricky.
- in the source code, there are 2 file names in there
- the files can be downloaded if you figure out the URL
- the login box gives a nice hint "formated second", what does that mean?
- it means youre supposed to do something to the second file
- "water became wine" means you need to change something
- that second MP3 is very small.. and it does not play well in winamp does it? Allmost like it was the wrong fileformat..

Level 9: This one was very easy for me.
take a look at source code
some of it counts.. some of it does NOT count

Level 10:
- Check the source code, there is another MP3 in there
if you try play it, its just garbled up and makes no sense. There are some hints though what you need to do with the file..
you need to change it to a wav, and mess around with speed and stuff..
Ahhhhh! A human voice! Words still make no sense though. There is something else you need to with it..

Man, level 14 is pissing me off. I think I got the answer, but I can't seem to execute it. Anyone have any idea how to enter foreign characters? Why, oh why did I get started on this... :mad
