Storm allows you to hide your confidential files and compressed folders
in regular JPEG picture files. Your information is encrypted and hidden
inside the JPEG file without affecting the picture's appearance, quality
or dimensions. Storm is very easy to use and it does not require a
password. It is compatible with all modern Windows versions and it is
distributed as freeware.

" If you want, you can e-mail the jiggered media file to a friend-it will
look as if you've sent just a photo, movie, or song. A free downloadable
edition of Storm Pro will extract the secret data, but you'll be tasked with
securely transmitting the password and explaining the arcane technique for
revealing the hidden file."

" Storm Pro is a quirky product that may appeal to James Bond wannabes, or
to those with serious secrets. Rather than apply the latest in cryptographic
algorithms, it hides the fact that there's anything to hide. If you truly
need it for even one file, it's well worth the price."

"Minimal user interface is awkward. File format is easily hacked if
password omitted. Secret data can be permanently lost if password is
forgotten"

So it's payware...
A genuinely free utility for this purpose is 'camouflage'.
But the problem with this technique is that although you can hide
the data file inside a jpg or whatever, you can't hide the increased
filesize.
