FireSteg Description

FireSteg is a steganography sidebar extension powered by Java. FireSteg will offer you the possibility to encrypt several files within multiple pictures. Directions: After installing, you can use it by either going to Sidebar in the View menu, add the button to the the toolbar, or simply press Ctrl+Shift+F. How it works: There are only two XUL files: firesteg.xul for the content in the sidebar, and firefoxOverlay.xul for the added View-->Sidebar menuitem, toolbar button, and the context menu items that appear when you right-click an image. It also comes with FireSteg.jar in the root of the extension directory, which is a java program I wrote which takes command line arguments supplied by firesteg.xul (using nsIProcess). It does the actual steganography. FireSteg should uninstall cleanly from your system, but keep in mind that if you add an image from a website via the added context menu items, FireSteg will pull it from the cache and save it in the FireSteg_Temp folder in your Firefox profile. That image will be deleted by firesteg.xul if you press "Remove" in the sidebar or by FireSteg.jar if you actually use it to hide or extract, to keep the folder from filling up.
