Xbox hack steganographically hidden in Linux penguin

] Secondly there is the Tux JPEG. Starting at offset 0x1080
] in the game save is a JPEG image. This is obvious from
] the text JFIF which is present in all JPEG headers. If
] you extract out this block, you get a nice little picture
] of Tux. Seems like a harmless little addition by a linux
] fanatic. It is typical of linuxheads to stick stuff like
] this everywhere. In reality, the real hack is encrypted
] and stored in this image. The practice of storing data in
] images is known as steganography. Perhaps this doesn't
] count, as it stores the data in the header and not in the
] actual image data. It's still rather devious.

Cute. :)
