Hmm, let's try to rotate the alphabet a bit...

Frequencies:
a 2
b 1
c 1
d 2
e 2
h 1
i 3
j 1
l 3
m 1
n 1
o 3
r 2
s 1
t 1
u 1
w 1
x 1
y 1
z 1

e = probably i or l or o

e = i > seiphrbv...
e = l > vhlskuey...
e = o > ykownxhb...

Okay, I'm bored already... I give up

good ideas, however, you will find that the cipher can only decode the last part of the message.
judging by your comments, none of u r going to work for the NSA

eh..and you will?

This isn't probably the best place to test your 'knowledge'...not to much competition in a programming forum.*cough*
There are different branches in the NSA you know. Being that about half the forum members are foreign, your assumptions are somewhat correct.

i got this by shifting each letter back one for the end part

......boe uijt!
......and this!

but with the first part its inconsistent and makes this mumbo jumbo

Good judging, now judge this: Do I care to work there?

And you did defently read to much "The Davinchi code"

Well, either it it a ceaser cypher, and ceaser is the key word (key words are used more in polyalphabetic substitution...)...

Well if it was Ceasar Cipher this is what you would get...0.o

OaeldnxrltlczrhyoweiMdias ...... boe uijt

LxbiakuoiqizwoevltbfJafxp ....... ylb rfmq

Cipher alphabet:
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
DEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZABC

Doesn't make a lot of sense, even if this was not in english, but maybe it isn't done with the english alphabet

It's not a caesar cipher, I'm not sure why that's the clue. The last part says "and this."

No.

Ceaser cypher = shift cypher

it doesnt have to be a shift of 4 all the time

I have tried Vigenere decoding with caesar as key, i tried rot13 and rot47, but all of it became gibberish. Can you give an extra hint?
