I was using a Steganography detection software and it flagged the following image as using a steganography method called "jphide": http://i.imgur.com/a3pUmpH.jpg
Now, the thing is that when I try to use Jphide to uncover the data it asks for a password, and the only thing I had to try with was the filename, but because I originally found the image from THIS site http://hollaforums.com/thread/8067477/politics/open-directory-found-from-the-podesta-emails-large.html and on the site the image was called "1477744604436.jpg" (which does not seem to be the original name from the Podesta emails because when I searched for that filename it didn't come up with any results). I therefore need YOUR help in finding the Podesta e-mail from where this photo was taken from, so that we can see if there are any suggestions of a password that we can use to crack the image file. Most probably the password will be the name of the original file, so if ya'll PLEASE can help me locate this photo from the Podesta e-mails we might have a chance to uncover what's hidden in this file!!
For anyone who's interested, this is how it looked when I scanned the photos. You will see that the photo in question is flagged as being encrypted with "jphide" steganography method: http://i.imgur.com/VtlG3My.jpg
God Bless!

Have you tried "dominoes"? I compiled the jphs program (jphide, jpseek) and ran jpseek on the picture and tried a few passwords until I tried dominoes because of the refernece to "play dominoes on pizza or pasta" in one of the emails, and it gives a different result than any other password. Any other password I try gives the output, "File not completely recovered" and an output file of 341,1 KB, but when I enter dominoes as the password, I get a file of size 202.6KB and I don't get any error messages, the program exits cleanly. I looked at the source code for jpseek on github and it's a set of basic conditionals, only throwing the "File not completely recovered" if the condition is not met. The file itself that is 202.6KB seems to be gibberish (viewed in hex editor it doesn't appear to really be anything), but the fact this happens at all is very strange. I tried other 8 letter words and even dominoez and such variations but those give the error and the 341.1KB file, I'm not sure what to make of this.

how about password. Spelt backwards?
