I got to level 9 quickly but now I can't or don't want to think hard enough to figure out the cipher.

How so? They give you elements. The periodic table gives you their symbols, O, C, H, K and the method tells you to "mix" them. Well, obviously if you mix them, you get HOCK, the only word that can be made from all 4 of those letters, and the password to the next level.

for level 5, i made a excel spreadsheet to count frequency and replace the most frequent letters. after replacing the 6 most frequent letters it was readable.
