I have some text that I need to decode. I think it was encoded with Java:

quVv2gRYss6

It looks like they just switched the letter character numbers around (A+3) or something like that. Any ideas on how I can reverse engineer this?

The language doesn't tell you much about the algorithm used to encode it. You can try a few standard decodings (Like Rot-13 or MIME), but it could just as easily be something rather devious, like using a 6 character key in DES then MIME encoding it.
Programming is a branch of mathematics.
