Canyoucrackit?

Today I have read on The Register about http://canyoucrackit.co.uk/. The puzzle looked interesting at a first glance (x86 code!), so I tried to crack it. It wasn’t too difficult – there is a twist though, so it was a little victory. I won’t publish the solution, but I am sure soon many web sites will make it available anyway. Let’s just say, it starts with ’15b4′.

The second stage (there are 3) is about virtual memory, and I am not sure if I have time/skills/patience to play with it. But who knows… GCHQ jobs are waiting đŸ˜‰

Forensic Riddle #2 – Answer

This is the answer to Riddle #2.

This one was an easy one as long as you are familiar with short file names; running a command “dir /x” would reveal a short name “virus.exe” associated with an executable file hidden behind a long name suggesting a JPG picture.

Thanks for trying & next riddle on Friday!
