Decrypt/decode text?

I am trying to decrypt this text. I have no idea what it was encrypted with or whatever (I'm a real n00b at this)...
Here's a sample:
t[];(£o 5&<+"u1 h#/gv(s w]k,".x 9,)1v<z o?7*4zd *7/@8"+ fcr~??/ ./c?i+* "b[yn:w ux?n])s dh07"d$ v<kg+4h £/3u}8g %~fys3^ n{$7&~~ /"&^]t< n%(''.) k[*;4a2 lpu@sa$ u/v$by] ,+=6&2£ +*2hm4r )e:
So what was it encrypted with? any ideas?

I have been working on it for 6 hours.
It's not a traditional Caesar Cipher, because it contains non-letter characters. It also doesn't have an overwhelming number of repeating characters which means one of two things:
1) It's not a caesar cipher because English uses vowels very often, and these vowels would appear as a high percentage of repeating characters even in the encoded state.
OR...
2) It's a Caesar Cipher that maps plaintext characters to multiple encrypted characters.
It's too elaborate for a simple substitution cipher.
I think it's a block cipher of some sort. I'm currently working on incomplete columnar transposition, and a Caesar Cipher that uses the ASCII table. I'm also evaluating hex, octal, decimal and binary conversions.
I'm trying ARTEMIS, KATHERINE and SEEKINGWOLF as block cipher keys.
or it could just be some asshole out to drive people like me insane and, thus far, mission accomplished.
I'm a total n00b at this and I wish I could help, but I really have no idea.
This was actually a message sent to me by someone. I'll send you a PM with additional info.
