I'm not an expert, but AFAIK encrypted files should be bigger than the original ones.
But I tried to encrypt a .zip and a .jpeg, and both created a .aes file of the same size.
Is the real size being hidden or what?
Shouldn't encrypted files be bigger than the original ones?

The files produced by AES Crypt are definitely larger, usually more than 132 bytes or so.
