It's been a while since I've learned any fun little hacks/tricks, so I thought I'd make a thread.

I'll start by posting one, and anyone who has anything to add, just post. Could get a nice little thread going.

Hiding RARs in JPEGs.

Creating:
1. Make a folder folder for the files [C:\afolder]
(You will obviously need a jpeg, and a rar with something in it. Save them to that folder)
2. Open command prompt [win+r > cmd > enter]
3. Change to the directory [cd c:\afolder]
4. [ copy /afolder image.jpg + archive.rar output.jpg ]

Opening:
Now when you open the jpg, it will open up in whatever editor/viewer you use.
However, if you run winrar [win + r > winrar], then drag the jpg in. You will see the contents of the RAR.

If someone was to see the image, they would think nothing of it. It's a quick easy way of hiding bits of data.

You can do the same thing on UNIX systems with the 'cat' program, as follows:

$ cat whatever.jpg whatever.rar >> whatever2.jpg
