🧩  I recently came across an abandoned computer in an old Baltimore Musuem. I tried accessing it but it seems to have some sort of bug that wont let me past a lock screen. It looks like it requires a 7 character passcode. 
I'll give 2500 degen to the first person who can help me figure out the password. Thanks in advance!

Hint 2:
The cipher is a gold-bug cipher, as hinted by the nevermore and museum references, among others.

For ease of copy pasting:

]6[5(†) 3‡0†8* 3598 26(† †63) *8; -45‡;6-500:

And the answer to the above is (7) letters long.
