VIRTUS Site Launched

[ad_hominem]

Esteemed Interlopers member Dr. Delta has launched a mysterious new website referring to something called 'VIRTUS'. On the site can be found a countdown timer, currently scheduled to end in 243 days, accompanied by some mood-setting music.

What is perhaps more illuminating, and ultimately interesting, is the secret file located on the page which will lead willing participants on a short but very satisfying ARG.

Happy hunting!

Here is what I have found:





http://virt.us/secure/miller-industries.gpg_dump

On that page is "intersync.virtus.cargo.vehicles.jikan-corporation.space:b3ff:fe1e" Delta's steam name used to be Dr. Jikan. This might be a competitor of Miller Industries.

http://miller-industri.es/secure/vpn/in ... tries.keys

I think the numbers on this page need to be put through something called "Syntactic Reordering for Japanese to English" then we need to convert the Japanese writing to English.

at the end of the second webpage you posted is
miller-industri.es

swap it with miller-industri.keys and iy will download a tar.bz2 file, extract and find:

edit: wait I can't recreate it... wtf

http://miller-industri.es/secure/vpn/~d ... r-Group.7z

[NoFace]

Yes thats it
Now, does anyone know how to and what programs to use, to decifer any codes found?

and from there, this:
http://www.miller-industri.es/secure/vp ... r-Group.7z

but it needs a password.

edit: I see your pictures above, they repeat each page, you only need 1 page.

[Armageddon]

'Hiraki Pafu' means 'Open Puff' in english.

I'm gonna download Openpuff v3.40 and run the images through it. One second.

Ran it through, got yet another file with a password that happened to be Seven again.

Gave me these:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5479044/crypto_key_vpn.mp3


Fairly sure I have to do the same thing on the image.

[Dr. Delta]

How peculiar, my image works just fine...

[Welsh Mullet]

The mp3 is a password in NATO code.
Aplha,Bravo,Charlie etc.

Looks to be case sensitive too.

[NoFace]

Im trying to write down the latter and numbers in the mp3 but some letters sound very weird???
il write ? when I don't know:
8riahiet82dO9GLU

here is the phonetic alphabet if it helps:
http://www.sckans.edu/~sireland/radio/code.html

I will edit more in when people give me help.

[Welsh Mullet]

8 romeo india alpha hotel india echo tango 8 2 delta "capital oscar" 9 "capital ?" "capital lema" "capital unicorn" ^

Assuming capital is refuring to case here

[NoFace]

Thanks, anyone know the 3rd to last letter. Also, anyone know the translation of the 'source' image above?

[Armageddon]

This password goes to open puff, but the problem is I can't understand half the .mp3

And I am translating all the images now.

[NoFace]

read the couple of posts above yours.
edit: oh, ok.

[Armageddon]

I know, but it's not the full password

Okay so I think I should explain Open Puff. It is a Steganography tool that can take one or multiple images or text files or any file type really, and it kind of adds a jpeg compression over the image. It can also remove it and discover a hidden image/message/file all of those images that look the same are actually different in the compression, and when I put them together and fed in three unique passwords on the key page it gave me the file with the mp3 and Source image. I think the mp3 has a password that is used to decipher the Source image.

[NoFace]

Im probably wrong but, are these cookie 'codes' any help to anything?


edit: Do you think it is capital golf?

edit2: I knew Dr. Delta's post was on purpose; it has changed...
... and the image file is the mp3 password:

edit3: He posted two images, he took the second image off. It was text on the first image saying something like: 'Find out the mystery, save a crew.'
