Eg: I encrypte "Secret.doc" With PgP 6.0.2 And then Use Steganos To Hide
"Secret.doc.pgp" In "Jungle Windows Start.wav". So If "Hacker" or "Big Brother"
Want To Read "Secret.doc" They Have To no That It's Hidin In "Jungle Windows
Start.wav" Witch Will Be Hard Since "Jungle Windows Start.wav" Sounds The Same
As It did B4 We Hide "Secret.doc.pgp" There And The Size Is still The Same.
Second They Then Have To Extract "Secret.doc.pgp" From "Jungle Windows
Start.wav". witch amy Or May not Need A Password , And Finaly They Would Have
To Have The Password To "Secret.doc.pgp".
Does your software strips the PGP header? If not, I suppose files can be fairly
easily scanned for recognizable patterns. The old stego program I had, eons
ago, did not strip pgp headers and footers, this had to be done with stealth.exe
