RULES:
Work solo.
It only uses basic encryption methods (Mostly well-known to most programmers, but no "advanced" ones like rot-13 (which isn't advanced in the slightest, but whatever.)
At the end, it is in english.

HINT(S):
The last step is reversing it.

GOOD LUCK!

[edit]
There IS a reward, (and I will be taking suggestions), but only the first person to crack it can get a reward.
Also, writing programs to crack it IS allowed.
[edit^2]
As long as you share the code if you win.

Get out the find and replace tools, people!

code number 2 (rules: allowed to use code, allowed to work in groups, must share code when done; previous rules do not apply):

code #2 here
WARNING: This code is MUCH MUCH harder.
My eyes ooooooh :O
Will give this a try, although it may take me 10 years Razz

Nah, just look up whatever you need (first one is bin to text, in case you couldn't tell)
I won! (Python 2.7)

Code:
import base64
from HTMLParser import HTMLParser

with open("code.txt", 'r') as f:
    ll = f.readline().split(' ')
#raw data, binary
ll = map(lambda q:int(q, 2), ll)
s = ''
for c in ll: s += chr(c)
#now it's in morse
ll = s.split('/')
del s
MORSE = {"-----":"0", ".----":"1", "..---":"2", "...--":"3", "....-":"4",
         ".....":"5", "-....":"6", "--...":"7", "---..":"8", "----.":"9",
         ".-":"A", "-...":"B",  "-.-.":"C", "-..":"D", ".":"E", "..-.":"F",
         "..--.-":"_"}
s = ""
for c in ll: s += MORSE[c]
s = s.split('_') # now it's in ASCII hex
ll = map(lambda q:int(q, 16), s)
s = ''
for c in ll: s += chr(c) #now it's in ASCII base64
s = base64.b64decode(s) #now it's HTML entities
h = HTMLParser()
s = h.unescape(s) #now it's backwards text
print s[::-1]

gg!
What code is this in?
And how did you figure what codes I used? And holy crud! And wow that was fast! And WOW!
[edit]
Right after I posted this, he edited his post to say it was in Python 2.7 0x5
Guess Hangouts is killing my computer to the point where I get easily post-ninja'd. It's in python 2.7, and the formats are common enough to be easily recognizable.

So did Mateo, and told me (on sax) incredibly close to CVSoft.
Message for the future
DO NOT POST THE ANSWER HERE, for future visitors to get a challenge!
Also, (edit) do NOT message me the answer, as I already have like 15 messages...
Just post here that you got it, and perhaps even come up with your own!
Good job CVSoft! My eyes couldn't handle all of those numbers. Very Happy
With a little push from PT_ for the final step, I got it. The first few steps were pretty easy though.
Ive got it to some angle lines with dots but there I'm stuck and my computer can't copy and paste ..broke it doing this XD
