The three solvable cryptograms give clues for (in two pieces each)
the names of search engines available at the time of this hunt.
Entering "TMZG TC COD M JPKAFBFMBL" as a search string at
AltaVista (for example) at the time of the hunt would have led to
the page
http://cosmos2.phy.tufts.edu/~kdo/found-it.html
Which gave the answer for the third fake cryptogram:
TMZG TC COD M JPKAFBFMBL + KYL TMBZAS QW SC XED QYL.
Welcome, hunters. You have found the right place.
