As you can see from here, there are no more sites that are connected to http://www.ninebow.com

So you will have to keep searching.

Kiern: Yes, I know and love Google, but I had no clue what the hell to Google. I could have done their advanced search and found pages like this, but I didn\'t think it would help me, so I avoided that.

And if that many people are stuck on it, is there a real answer? Did the creator of it just throw some numbers out there to fool people and make them waste their time?

If there is an answer, however, good luck. If not, hah! You\'ve just been fooled. ;)

Can you people explain why i\'m looking at a bug while you guys speak about a math problem?

Okay i found a link that took me to the binary.
I have no idea what to do with the binary numbers even though i got the link to the /two. I think the last step 1 might have to do with step two.  And heres a link to a blog that i found on google that talks about it a bit. The commenters seem to know what they are talking about.

Edit: forgot the link :)

This thing is killer I hafe pondered over those numbers for hourd one site led me to an IQ test that i scored in the 99th percentile I\'m probably over thinking the problem...

I found this link where people are working verry hard at trying to get through step two.

Hopefully some of their ideas will be helpful.

The guy claims there is a prize...
No ones passed level 2 yet and if they did why would they tell others =/

Edit: I got an idea.
Take the numbers and make em all roman numerals. Then you will have combos of V\'s I\'s ans X\'s since that is whgat roman numerals are composed of. Then You might be able to lose the V\'s with the addition and stuff thats there. Whcih leaves you with I\'s and X\'s or in normal terms, 1\'s and 10\' Which could be used as binary. :)
Im to lazy to try but if somone\'s bored, go for it :)

Just got the idea to replace the spaces with %\'s, and use it as hexidecimal.

Or maby just remove the spaces completely. You get 284339. Go figure.

Remember, this can be done by a 6th grader.

the nine bows were the nine enemies of egypt.  this explains the title.  the first clue i think represents the direction of one of the nine bows. Still investigating on this.

the \"nine bows\" were actually the enemies of ancient egypt.  here are some pages that may help us out:

http://touregypt.net/featurestories/enemies.htm

Ps: the nine bows were as follows:

1. The Hau-nebu on the north-eastern coast of the Mediterranean
 
2.Shat, a people to the south of Egypt, near the third cataract
3. The Ta Shema
4. Sekhet-iam, western oasis dwellers
5. Ta Mehu
6. Pedjtiu-Shu who roamed the eastern desert
7. The Libyan Tehennu
8. Iuntiu-seti, a nomadic people, possibly Nubian
9. Mentiu nu Setet who were Asiatics found in Canaan and along the coast up to Ugarit

Maby it means that if you draw a circle (360 decrese), and put egypt in the middle, the numbers will tell you in what degree the enemy is located.

I dont know how this will help, but what ever.

Edit: the pluses and minuses indicate that the enemy is large and takes up more then one degree.
I dont have time, but if you are confused about what i just said, tell me and I\'ll explain later.
