Are there programs that use ADS technology in NTFS for hiding data? What are some good ones?

Well, the only program I know of that (claims) to do this is Xidie.

I don't really think a program will help you, however, because:

  1. Steganography using ADS is really only a very superficial form of information hiding. Any computer professional will (should) know about ADS and check them, so you are not really hiding anything.
  2. Even if you expect using ADS to be sufficiently secure, you can just create them using regular Windows tools, by appending ":" to a file's name. See e.g. http://www.irongeek.com/i.php?page=security/altds for an introduction. So what would you expect such a program to do?

Maybe you could open a new question, explaining your requirements in more detail, then we may be able to help.
