Sure. Right click anywhere on your web site, tap your heels together three
times and say "There's no place like home. There's no place like home.
There's no place like home..."

If you had perused this newsgroup for similar topics and posts, you would
realize that this question comes up every day or so, and that the true
answer is, you can not stop people from copying content from your web site
by any means. In fact, if you knew what a web site was, you would know that
a browser downloads (a copy of) the content of a page prior to displaying
it. Therefore, it is already copied before they right-click, left-click, or
about-click anything at all.

If you hear otherwise from anyone, make a mental note not to believe
anything they tell you in the future, as they are ignorant of the
technology.

Insert the following into your body tag:

ondragstart="return false" onselectstart="return false"

....users will not be able to copy and paste from your visible page. It also
prevents using Ctrl + A to select all the content to copy and paste.

It also prevents visitors from right clicking and making a desktop shortcut to the page.

It does not however prevent them from using Print Screen to take a screenshot.

Ian,

It is true you can use javascript to disable the right
click. This will not prevent your pages, images, text from
being taken.

Website Operation Steps:

1. Browser requests page
2. Server sends page and all referenced files to computer
3. Computer saves the page and files
4. Browser reconstructs page from the computer it is on

Step 3 says that everything is saved on the computer before
it is displayed. All the thief needs to do to get your page
is to go to that location on their computer, and it is there
