I am using PHP cURL to access the page and it ALL works, i can make it alert the string so i know i have the correct coding. I use $ans=base64_decode($hash); on it and then relocate to http://www.hellboundhackers.org/challenges/timed/timed1/index.php?b64=".$ans
this says wrong answer, is base64_decode not the right thing to use or what?? lol
thnx in advance for ANY help =]

I think I had a similar problem to this when I did the challenge, except I did it in Python.
I can't help you for 100% sure but if you PM me your code I might be able to tell you what's wrong

on the 'relocate thingy', "http://www.hellboundhackers.org/challenges/timed/timed1/index.php?b64=$ans" will work, double quotes parse variables inside of them.

try
$ch = curl_copy_handle($firsthandle);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "the_new_link");
curl_exec($ch);
you needed to send all the info to get the page, so you have to when sending it back as well. Maybe the problem, I don't know.

Optimize your code a bit? Write it in a faster language? Run it on a computer with a faster internet connection?

What kind of chars should i look...? o_O I'm using cURL from command line, with one of the GNU coreutils, and i can decode the string, it should be correct, 'cause i decrypted it in an online decoder and it's same as mine... Should i get chars like ^},;?

It should be ugly. Here's an example of one I just decoded: 'qkf=*g({f2p;*l-h'
You must be sending it wrong.
By the way, this thread is old.

The tread is old, but my question is actual for me.  The problem is not the way of sending, but the time... My PC is old (500MHz) and the net isn't good to... (1024/512)
