Welcome to Van's TSOS Cryptographic Challenge Episode 4!
Ok here's the deal, below is an encrypted message. If I considered episode 1 a
12 difficulty on a 10 point scale, I expect this to be an 8 difficulty and figure someone
will solve it within the first couple weeks. Good Luck.

SOLVED! Congrats Dominic!He actually solved it the day I put up the last hint. He downloaded the C# project file and noticed I left the .exe in the bin directory. But I gave you guys a chance.
Good Luck!
