Steghide
How to use Steghide:
Go to this site: http://steghide.sourceforge.net/ and download a copy of Steghide. Extract the zip.
You want to hide a file. First thing you need is a file to hide it in. Choose a file – whether that be a music file, jpeg, word document… whatever – and save it inside the steghide folder, which was extracted from the zip folder. Also, save your file that you want to hide inside that same folder as well.
Open up your command prompt and open the steghide folder directory. Open the steghide.exe file. The last few rows of type will tell you how to embed and extract your hidden file.
Embedding:
Type into the command prompt: ‘steghide embed -cf file.jpg (this is your regular file) -ef hiddenfile.txt’ (this is the file you want to hide).
Choose a Passphrase and you’re done! You’ll notice the original photo or music file has changed it’s byte size now that you’ve embedded something inside it.
Extracting:
Type into the command prompt: ‘steghide extract -sf file.jpg’ and enter the passphrase. Now, you’ll see the extracted hidden file appear inside the same folder.
Your done! Simple, eh?

Cool show. First time viewer. That embeding text reminds me of spy movies that would show viewers that something was embeded in it. But usually in the movies they have cooler graphics then doing it in command (terminal)mode. But, Really cool show. ps, try to cut down on the sugar donuts & pop, just to happy. lol
