Carol,

It's easy to copy webpages and images.  You might want to talk to
Suite101.com about anti-copy methods and options.  Even a simple pop-up
window with a copyright reminder would add another layer of protection to
your words -- sort of like a simple password.

I wanted to protect the pictures I post for Gardens subscribers -- for *my*
peace of mind.  I use a script file that disables right-click mouse
maneuvers for those Gardens pages.  It's short, so it doesn't use much load
time.  It is also easy to circumvent, so it doesn't offer much protection
against determined theft.  It does force a pause and offers surfers that
chance to reconsider.
