a friend made a bet that if this code was broken i would get an item ive been looking for for a long time. please help me win the bet.

It's eight words. It was encrypted using PHP's mcrypt function with a certain cipher. The key is 51 characters in length and the IV is eight characters in length

here is the code:

c5pNg+PQSWidRMpQ9c9Uf+eyJLhF9r/qv/M1l45Or+fZx8L5t47rIN6ffqxeVCaqkZYudtgV3dg=

i have no clue about this stuff :banghead:

thanx for any help
