i don't if it can be done without an xtra.
for your client:
it is probably always possible to capture the screen. if you are determined
enough, nobody can stop you. it may require a little c code, but it can (as
far as I know) always be done. most times all you need is PaintShop Pro or
any other program that can grab the contents of a window.
disabling the print screen button will only make it a very little bit
harder.
