The first number appears on this (http://64.233.161.104/search?q=cache:5ViegAPvpEgJ:553146124.0x800ccc0d.com/870740254) page cached by google.

Coincidence? I think not!

That's what I found too, still don't understand.

I'll have to go with 42 also.

If you are posting answers here, then you obviously haven't reached the end of the Treasure Hunt.  The instructions are there.

Still not completely solved. :(

Yoni, don't make it harder than it is.  I do believe, however, that once you get past this first clue, you will breeze through the rest of them.  Mathematics are not required to solve any clue.

Goddammit it isn't 42!
I should have made the first clue easier.  How about this ultra enhanced clue:

"Sorry about this, I know it's a bit silly."  I can't get past that part :(

Such a clever Thing. I got the first clue after your third hint. :p
Why does it give "Please retry" sometimes?

Hmm I never got that message.  Maybe you are trying to break that poor, old, almost worn out server?

Spoiler:

put in your browser 1067562758/0027539024/7739089244/

If you click on "The message." it will play a wav file of Hal saying "Sorry about this, I know it's a bit silly."  If you look at the page title, it says "Who are you?"  Well I would be Dave if Hal was talking to me.  So I typed in "Dave" but that didn't work and then I typed in "dave" and that worked.  Case-sensitive, that's why it took me a while to figure out :\

Seems when you put a space in the username it says "Please retry".

Bah, I tried that thing the first time I saw it. I guess IE doesn't like IP as 32-bit number anymore?

Oh.

I was SURE it's an Apache/SSL/PHP vulnerability exploiting thing. (Check the web logs for what I tried.)
Oh wlel.
