XOR Problem

Recently I offered to the members of mypenguin99, to get my encrypted with XOR file decrypted. (I was using xor-analyze, and never mentioned the keylength, and the tool that I chose to encrypt). Bro Bahathir unsurprisingly  managed to solve the problem in no time (yeah, need some time to google and decrypt). In this case we need a collision from a dictionary of widely used words, so that the real message can be guessed. 

Although XOR considered a primitive cryptography, it is being used by malware writers to encrypt part of their payloads, as being written here

Given my Digikam plugins unable to work, I start to figure out many wonderful features of other tool which offer almost the same quality. However I was stucked with ImageMagick,with many tutorial on the net: Here and Here for i in *jpg ;do convert -font helvetica -fill white -pointsize 18 -draw 'text 10,50 "ACM-ICPC Beijing 2005"' $i $i;done The pix above shows a heater to heat up guest room during ACM-ICPC competition.
