FAQ regarding AudioSteganography App

This post is in relation to two of my previous posts here and here.

Q1. Why is the source file removed from MediaFie?
Ans : It seems that some part of the source code contains copyrighted code belonging to Summit Entertainment LLC. So they have requested MediaFire to remove the zip file. They have not informed what file or specific code is copyrighted.

Q2. Can you post a version removing the said copyrighted code?
Ans : As I it hasnt been specified as to which part of the code is copyrighted, I am unable to edit the sourcecode to give another version.

Q3. What Algorithm is used for Encryption process?
Ans : In this project, DES (Data Encryption Standard) has been used to encrypt the plain text that is to be stored in the audio file. We can use anyother algorithm supported by "javax.crypto.Cipher" class.

Q4. What language is used to implement this?
Ans : Java 1.5. I used Java because it was part of our curriculum to do this project in Java. You can use C# or C, C++ to implement the same. The advantage of Java being the Crypto package already available in the language as well as the advantages of the Java Programming language.

Q5. Can you detail out the implementation of this project?
Ans : I worked on this project for my Engg Project back in 2007 - 08. Check this post for more info on the implementation of the project. http://midhunhk.blogspot.com/2011/10/audiosteganography-info.html
