Yes, this GAOTD does its dirty job pretty well but can hide files only behind IMAGES and above all it cannot hide multiple files inside one single carrier.

Not a great deal for a 24 $ app, is it??

So what if you could hide for FREE your important files not only in JPEG images but also in Mp3, FLV and even into executable files (exe, msi), rather than protecting them with a password??

Want to protect for FREE your files & folders residing in your USB drives, network servers, CD/DVDs and even iPods like a PRO, instead of behind them behind an Image??

And what if there was a FREE tool out there able to not only encrypt your files on a USB drive, but also to organize them in several categories automatically (My Pictures, My Videos, My Music, My Documents, My Archives, My Software, My Other Files etc...) ?

Too good to be true, right?? Wrong!!!

And how about encrypt confidential TEXT in your (email) messages and even your EMAIL ATTACHMENTS for FREE or create secure encrypted archives ready to be sent via email to your friends ??

OK!! You love the CLOUD (Dropbox, SkyDrive, Google Drive, Mozy etc..) and/or are eager to share your files & folder with other via email, USB, LAN, P2P etc.... but at the same time you are scared by the idea that some snoopers out there may be able to capture your TCP/IP packets with professional packet sniffers like Wireshark??
Relax baby...relax!!

And finally, for a more comprehensive encrypting software, besides Truecrypt and Axcrypt, just give this cool FREE & PORTABLE Italian app a shot, kissing any "Brute Force" attacks goodbye for good:

I'm sorry, I listed "Portable" in my short review above. I'm not sure what I was thinking -- must of had a brain fart -- because this isn't a portable program. You need to installi t.

I had version 1.6 from an earlier giveaway. I installed this new version in the same folder. The installation was smooth and easy. There was no need to enter the key information found in the readme file. The program was still registered. For those that do not already have this, you will need to enter the key information.

I am not an expert on this type of software and I will not pretend to be. I can say I have used this to hide small files and it has worked effectively. I would think for larger files this may be limited. I mean how can someone look at an image file that is several MB's in size and not wonder what is up with it? I would think larger files would require some other sort of encryption.

Thank you GOTD team for all of your hard work. Thank you Enplase Research for your gift.

I was thinking, I guess like #8, Alia, that you could use this to hide copyright info inside the picture. So later when some bozo posts YOUR picture after having removed the watermark, it would still contain the file with YOUR copyright info. But I'm not sure if the program CAN be used like this. If it can, I can certainly see uses for it.
