    Any possibility of using letter frequency? What about it being written in a different language (any others other than English being commonly used in your country?)?

    It could be Freemason/Pigpen cipher with a simple letter shift (shift each letter x number of places in the alphabet).

    I'll look at it for a while.

    It's the code for the AdminCP probably.

    The two letters at the end of the first row are repeated together a total of three times in the message. That is a good place to start.

    None of the common pigpen ciphers make sense. Not even if you do an alphabet shift.

    None of the words would fit as Book in the Bible, nor the title of a Shakespeare play. The third word would be nice as "chapter" but that creates impossible words. Tried to fit written out numbers, but nothing seemed to work.

    The second word is possibly the way to break it. The second and last letter are the same which is somewhat rare in English. It also has that letter pair which is found in each of the first three words. I tried "Drawer" and "Prayer" but to no avail. If it is a name or place it would make it quite difficult.

    Maybe they just drew with no particular meaning intended? It could just be random, or maybe the people who wrote it made it up on their own?
