I'm pretty damn sure, as in sound plaintext sure, that I have the right solution. The form won't accept it though...

Depending on interpretation, the last character may be corrupted. Try adding one to it.

Worked

someone PN me plz.
need to know if i am on the right way or if i am totally wrong ....

Any hints, apart from Vi? I'm using windows and therefore unable to use it, despite wanting a linux/unix based computer. It's had me stuck for sometime and i've tryed omparing it to the origional source and also found that each sentence is on a new line - is this key?

Please help

There's vi for Windows, you could also use a Linux live DVD (OS booting from disc) and run vi there - but imho vi is a pain in the ass, you could use any _decent_ text editor (no, notepad is not decent enough, AFAIR, try notepad++ for example)

Is gedit good enough?

Haven't used it, but I am pretty confident, it is good enough.

Notepad is good enough, just you need to look closely. DOne it now =]

I found some commas which do not exist in original source. Is it a clue?

Also stuck here for some time. Found the differences but there is just not to much to make of them. Any other hint would be appreciated!

I just got some weird results with diff, colordiff and http://www.textdiff.com/ ...

Edit: now I've tried also sdiff. Any "diff"-Programs missing?
Edit2: bdiff ... but it seems to be like diff.

Well iv got to 'the answer is '... then a word relating to chocolate and a cuckoo but instead of the repeated letter i would expect i have 'g9' and some excess binary. If anyone could help please do...
iv tried all the sensible options of an answer from what i have.

If you pm the answer a guess at why i have what i do would be appreciated.

There is a small error in this challenge, the very last letter of the answer is not encoded 100% correctly.

Well i appear to have made a small error with it anyway. By starting from scratch i got a longer code and yes when i sorted the last didget it worked, but im sure i tried the correct answer before and it wouldnt take it? oh well.
