Looks like it is base64 encoded.

You can use atob("<base64 code>") in the Web Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer).

I've obfuscated the code in your question.

One last thing. In the event that the passwords information is lost, you should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else on your hard drive, or written down. You can easily copy and paste if you need to do so. If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can compress it using a password.
