Image protection 2

Thanks to Frederick Linden-Wyatt for the script solution
to "right-click" image grabbing from a web page.
Unfortunately image grabbing can still be accomplished by
means of the image toolbar if it is enabled in IE. Can
anyone advise of a technique, script or otherwise, for
disabling the image toolbar on a web page?

Add this to the head section of your page:

<meta HTTP-EQUIV="imagetoolbar" CONTENT="no">

However, all the user has to do in IE, File Menu | Save As | Complete HTML
and they get the page and the images, as well as the path to the images on
your server.

In other words, you can not protect anything that is on the web, without
requiring users to download a plug-in in order to view your site.

That would be fine but do you honestly think that most of the people who are
trying to keep their photos from being "borrowed" will look there first?
Perhaps in a perfect wrld but, as life is so anxious to point out to us,
this is NOT a perfect world. :-(

This question comes up alot and unfortunately the only way to be 100% safe
is to not put them on the Internet.
