I always laugh aloud when I see Web pages with right-click warnings on them.
"Oh no! I can't copy your stupid image!" Now, I'm not saying that all images
are stupid, nor am I saying that users don't have the right to hold all
rights over their properties. However, if you put it on the Internet, it's
pretty much fair game. If you don't want people to steal it, don't put it
there. Simple, and very effective. The other day, someone sent me a link to
a shareware utility that would allegedly put the kybosh on all Web content
stealing activities. Bah. Whatever. We've discussed how you can use
SHIFT+F10 or the "context menu" button on your keyboard to bypass blocking
before. Here's another possible route (at least, for images): left click to
select and hold it, tap Windows+D to bring up your desktop, then drop the
object anywhere. Failing that, you could also try viewing the source for the
Web page to find the direct URL for the image. Where there's a will, there's
a way. Don't be lulled into a false sense of security when you try to "block
that kick."
You'd be surprised at how many times this question is asked! "How can I
prevent others from stealing my pictures, codes, etc."
In a word - YOU CAN'T!
