Does anybody remember this from back in the day???
This is a cool little trick to watch a star wars episode in telnet.
First, make sure you are connected to the internet.
1.Goto run.
2.Type in or copy �telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl� without the quotes.
3. Hit Enter.
Enjoy!!!
Also, for those who want another easter egg, save the above .gif file it has a surprise in it. For the first one to figure it out I might give the lucky gamer something special!!!!

To "break the code" you might need this:

The rest of the answer can be found in my first post!!!!
Good luck to all...
oh and an understanding of steganography might help!!! _________________ "Well hello Mister Fancypants. Well, I've got news for you pal, you ain't leadin' but two things, right now: Jack and s**t... and Jack left town." - ASH

Honestly, I haven't tried yet. Code breaking isn't exactly my thing. The closest thing that I do to breaking codes is converting d20 stats.  _________________ __________________________________

Saved the .gif file and have no idea what I'm supposed to be looking for... nor does the telnet link work.
Tho, I do remember the old ASCII art movies from back in the days of gopher, ftp and telnet. I'm assuming that's what this is. _________________ Han - "How're we doin'?"

Way to go Zorg shoot me an email at zadamw@hotmail.com. To everyone else, thanks for playing....
The "Link" works for me: For everyone running WindowsXp (What I'm running) go to start, click run, and paste in the link :
