1337 is "leet", short for "elite". Eh, I don't think I could explain it well. Let's see if I can find a definition somewhere...
Okay, according to UrbanDictionary.com, it's "a dialect used either by people who think they are cool, or hackers (and people pretending to be hackers.) Involves replacing letters with numbers and/or symbols that look like them (and sometimes don't), and often mispelling, changing and abbreviating words."
So for example, the 1 in 1337 is an 'l', the 3 is a backwards 'e', and the 7 is a 't'. So 1337 = leet.
I made a leet translator in vb2 2 years ago. It replaced about 7 letters, and added "zor" onto the end of random words. It wasn't that great, and explaining 1337 to ms hayward was hella difficult

There are a few of them, and some are better than others. There's one here, one here, and one here.
