Nope. I was able to translate the binary pretty easily, but I can't figure out what to do with it. They don't seem to be valid IP's.

I don't have the answer yet, but I think the solution is far easier than we are trying to make it. Either that, or a middle schooler is much smarter than we are.
From the creator: "Remember I said that a middle schooler could get this, and although I'm sure there are some regex linux geeks in 6th grade- that's not what I meant. I mean the _average_ middle schooler who was awake for at least 50% of the time. "

Here's another game/puzzle along the same lines. They also have a forum where you can get hints if you get stuck, but they don't give out the answers. www.notpron.com

Well for the second part i don't think the +/-'s are the typical operators but i have no clue whatelse they would represent.

I've tried Morse code, days of the week, binary to ascii, letters of the alphabet, adding/ subtracting in various patterns, and still nothing!
I love it! Frustrating as hell, but a real mental exercise.

Notice on the thrid line of step 2, first number instead of 7 digits, it is only 6.
Same with the last sets of numbers on lines 1 and 2 AFJuvat
