Can
I protect images ? What can you offer in regard to website image protection?
Yes. If you
choose to disable the right click in the encrypted files, the visitors of your
site will not be able to right click and select 'Save image..' from the browser's
context menu (this will also disable the Image Toolbar in Internet Explorer 6 and dragging images
out of the browser window). If you choose 'Save As' from the 'File' menu in Internet
explorer, it will save the html file and all images and other files referenced
in it. But if the file is encrypted, images and other files used in the page will
not be saved - only the page itself will be.
You may also use the 'Disable Clipboard & Print Screen' option to prevent
taking screenshots of your pages.
However, when someone browses your website, all the images used in html files
are first downloaded and then displayed by the browser. So all your images are
somewhere on the visitor's hard drive. Usually they are stored in hidden folders
and not under their original names, but are still there and someone can find them,
although that's not so easy and most internet users don't know how to do that.

Is it possible to disable the Image Toolbar
in Internet Explorer 6?
Yes. Selecting 'Disable right click' feature will also disable
the Image Toolbar in Internet Explorer 6 and later, and the ability to drag images outside
the browser window and drop them in other programs or other browser windows, image editors, etc. <<<

Can I disable printing of my web pages?
Yes. Check the 'Disable page printing' box.
Note: This will not actually 'disable' printing. If someone tries to print a protected
html file, only blank pages will be printed. The page
content (text, images etc.) can not be printed. <<<

Can I disable Print Screen button?
Yes. Check the 'Disable Clipboard & Print Screen' box.
Note: This option works system-wide and will totally disable the clipboard - it will not be possible
to copy images, text, files or anything else in any program, until the protected
file is closed. After it's closed, the normal clipboard functionality will be
restored. <<<

What can I do to protect my flash animations?
Is it possible to encrypt swf files?
No. Encrypt HTML source can't do anything in regard to flash
(.swf or .fla) files included in your site. It can only make it much harder for
the visitors to save the flash files used in your web site, but it can not protect
them, and will not modify them in any way. <<<

Can I protect website links from leeching,
stealing and posting on other web sites?
Yes. You have to check the 'Disable right click' and 'Don't
show links in status bar' boxes. This way links can't be copied by using the right
click context menu, and link targets will not be visible in browser's status bar
when the mouse is over a link. Be careful when using the 'Don't show links in
status bar' option - it will suppress your custom status bar messages, if any.
Encrypt HTML source will also make impossible link leeching. Many programs (such
as the popular download managers FlashGet, MassDownloader, GetRight, Download
Accelerator etc.) can leech all the links from a html document. If for example you
have a picture gallery on your site, it's a one minute job to leech the links
to all your images with some of the above mentioned programs. Then someone can
directly use your links in another website, this way not only stealing them, but
also generating a traffic to your site which you may have to pay.
So Encrypt HTML source will not only make impossible leeching and stealing of
your links, but may also save you a lot of money in case you have to pay for the
generated traffic. <<<

Can I secure images against direct linking
from other web sites?
Yes. Please read the above question.
There are many dishonest webmasters that steal pictures from other websites. But
the worst of them don't even bother to download your
pictures and then upload them to their sites / webservers - they put in their pages direct
links to images hosted on other servers. This is the worst possible scenario -
not only your artwork is stolen and used for somebody else's benefit, but a huge
amount of traffic to your server is generated as well. There are many un - protected
image gallery websites for which the traffic generated as a result of this form
of theft by far exceeds the traffic generated by the site visitors.
That's why it is very important to use image
protection and protect images from direct linking by
encrypting the source code. <<<
