Yes, but generally executed in two ways, one they use flash which offers the best "security" and two via java pop-up which is really only good as a warning that they are about to do something that's prohibited, it will not generally prevent the image from being saved. There are no foolproof ways to protect your images apart from not showing them publicly. Images have to be downloaded to be viewed so they may remain in a cache on the users system and in any case it's easy enough to do a screen print if you're that keen on having a copy of any image. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://picasaweb.google.com/distudio/PESO http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
