encryption

[Dafly]

I was wondering if anyone knew what type of encryption this looks like?


†TOWIERD† 1CQ(5$U,/CQ&3TY4("!325I%/3,@4%1325I%/3$P/FAE>2!W:&%T(&ES('1H92!O8FIE8W0@8F]X(&EN('9B/SPO2%1-3#XE‡ )3GKA'IVRDW+JZTED?<SG\@


even if it looks similar to any kinda of encryption let me know.


Thank you,
Jeremy

Hmmm...I'm somewhat skeptical about this but it looks as if a number was either added or subtracted from the original ASCII code.

I think it may be a Bit shift Encryption ?

Not very sure though ..!

I will try to decode it If it is directly from the aliens .

Well I'm with megatron on this one. It looks like it has quite a bit of structure to it. With a single primer you could probably decrypt it easily. But then again, it could look as though it has structure do to the fact that somebody may have just simply typed a bunch of characters. The "†" and the "‡" look rather suspicious. If it wasn't for those two characters I might say it was a simple Xor Encryption, but I've not seen those characters before in a Xor encryption personally. Perhaps the better question is "Where did this string come from?". Then maybe we could help a little more.

I was looking more through it and found that what i posted really wasnt the encyrpted text part i am intrested in, below looks to be the encryption part i need to look at, and as for where i found it at, i was playing with a program off of the net that shows info about windows textbox's etc. but also allows you to hide and show controls on other programs, well i was plaing around with aol's im window to see what all it had control wise and found an edit control that was hidden so i made it visable, well when i unhide it i found somthing that looked like it was encrypted for what reason i would like to know. below in in bold is the encrypted part i am intrested in

F9F9F9F8B/CQ&3TY4/F$\+T9/3E0^/"]"3T19/CPO2%1-3#Y.‡ .VCP=L0]E_>!:\1;I$"R;TH

Thanx again

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Text = ".VCP=L0]E_>!:\1;I$""""R;TH "
    U = Asc(Left(Text, 1))
    L = U
    For n = 1 To Len(Text)
        If Asc(Mid(Text, n, 1)) > U Then U = Asc(Mid(Text, n, 1))
        If Asc(Mid(Text, n, 1)) < L Then L = Asc(Mid(Text, n, 1))
    Next n
    Debug.Print U '95,135
    Debug.Print L '32,32
    Debug.Print U - L '63,103
End Sub

Well just don't complain the state of my code since it's not posted to help someone, it's just confirming some of my comments:

There may be some Ascii dependent encryptions since i got asc(32) as the lowest value and 135/95 as the highest values so there's no sign of neither binary nor xor encryptions.

Thanks
