The immense surge in popularity of Sudoku internationally has led to
it being dubbed in the world media in 2005 variously as "the Rubik's
cube of the 21st century" or the "fastest growing puzzle in the
world".
Playing Sudoku is like playing Golf. You play against yourself and
also challenge others in the Solving time. No cheating is necessary.
Your skill can only be better and better through regular playing.

After visiting this website,

Personally, I didn't bother, until you said...

I immediately had trouble accessing the
Internet using Lotus Notes and Internet Explorer.

Well, let's take a look at the code, shall we?

Just out of vicarious paranoia, I've replaced all < with [ and > with ],
okay? After all, for all I know, some of you have newsreaders that can
do HTML, JavaScript, and whatever else.

Right then, it starts like this:


[!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";]

which is actually a pretty good start, to be fair.

[html xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'
xmlns:b='http://www.google.com/2005/gml/b'
xmlns:data='http://www.google.com/2005/gml/data'
xmlns:expr='http://www.google.com/2005/gml/expr']

Looks harmless enough, doesn't it? But this...

[script language='javascript']function O00O(){eval(unescape(

....looks like someone has something to hide.

I'll let someone who cares enough do the conversion (20 = ' ', 30 = '0',
41 = 'A', 61 = 'a', etc).
