'''4t HIT Mail Privacy Lite''' by 4t Niagara Software is a Win32 steganography program that hides up to 256 characters in a [[BMP]] and encrypts it with a password.

It reads a large variety of formats (jpg, gif, tga, eps, png, tif, wmf), but converts them all one of three variants of bmp:

* straight bmp
* bmp in a zip file
* bmp in a zip file with the extension .hit

The .hit extension is associated with the program so you can open the files and be prompted for a password by double-clicking them.
