I too went down that route. I really, really couldn't find anything that ended up logical/a password for the 7z. I think we're just circling the drain. I hope we get the final hint soon. I can just hear CA getting more and more frustrated with us. "It's right there! Just do x and y, not a, b, c, d, e, f, g and ß!".

I believe we're all just over thinking things. I know I certainly am. I'll revisit your idea with some gusto shortly. Let me close some of my many, many tabs and I'll look into it.
