Riddle twenty-nine

Riddle twenty-nine: Part 1 and 2

Difficulty: 4
Interest: 7

This one is actually in two parts. The first one has you analyzing an image named "unicode.jpg". What you are looking for is shadows subtly printed over the image. You don't see the full character, but what you see is enough to guess what it is. Then you figure what unicode is.

The second part has you looking at a little animated gif. It seems to link that accentuated character to the symbol shown previously. You might need to look at languages other than english to find that accent (French, among others, uses it). Then you simply proceed as before.

*Spoilers*

The Part 1 symbol displayed is also known as an arrobe.
The second part will need you to type a capital letter in the address bar.
