What type of encoding is used here?

Any of you know a way to tell what type of encoding was used with the following entries:

123 = [b]J8DH[/b]
1234 = [b]J8DHxg__[/b]
12345 = [b]J8DHxh4_[/b]
123abc [b]J8DHk0m4[/b]
abc = [b]d5CX[/b]
abcd =[b] d5CXlg__[/b]
abcde = [b]d5CXlk4_[/b]
abc123 [b]d5CXwxno[/b]

It looks like some kind of standard (like base64) but I can't tell, so I was hoping someone here might be able to figure it out. I need to this cause I am working on reversing a certain application, and this is how their passwords are encoded and sent to and from a certain server  :-\

I can give you any other words and their encoded version if you need more samples....it just takes me a few mins cause I have to do some packet scanning while creating a new account with this certain application.

Anyways, thanks a bunch  8)

It may be some custom algorithm. If you got it in your code, post it here so we can see it.

I'm actually packet scanning while creating an account through a program (which is a .exe file), and the program does the encoding itself and sends the encoded version to a server. I pick up the encoded version of my password I chose through a packet scan. I didn't make the program (doing the encoding) so I dont have the source code :(

The encoding is the password of the account you are creating, so I know the before and after, I'd just like to know how its done without having to create an account/packet scan everytime.
