How to decrypt an image

[newsiness]

Hi,

Would really appreciate if someone could find a way to decrypt the image url
--Edited--

Thanks

We probably need more information. Where did you get this link from? Is the link supposed to be an image or is that the encrypted part?

Explain what you're trying to do in more detail, from start to finish.

the original image url is --Edited--

Looks like the image has been encryted, anyway to decrypt it?

All I see is the filename in my browser (where the image usually shows up). Is this what you see? The same thing happened when I downloaded it (except it changed to whatever the current files filepath was). I opened it with Firefox.

It could be that (if it really is supposed to do this) it's a scripted image that just displays the path of the file.

You are right, this is what i see in FF browser.

I am using a simple script, for example

From the demo, it shows alien language. Do you think it is possible to decrypt it?

please advice.

The "alien language" is the binary content of the image.
Unfortunately, there is an error with how they're generating the image.

Opening the link with IE would yield that little box with the red X that says the image can't be loaded.
Sometimes, Firefox replaces the erroneous image with an image of the site's URL.

If the image Was valid, you would need to tell the browser the code you're spitting out is actually an image using the content-type header.

<?php
header('Content-type: image/jpeg');
$url="http://...";
echo file_get_contents( $url );
?>

Where are you getting this link from? Does it display a real image elsewhere? It's possible there is a session cookie behind it...

They encrypted the image and yes... it is diplayed elsewhere....

Ok. You need to tell me where is is displayed. If you're not going to give me all the information, I am not going to help you. This is the third and final time I am going to ask. Tell me exactly what you are trying to do, or I'm going to assume it's something illegal/unethical.
They can't just "encrypt" and image so it doesn't display in the browser and magically display it elsewhere. Unfortunately, without seeing how they are displaying it and all the files that come into play, as well as what you're actually trying to get as an outcome, I can't do anything.
