I'm kinda confused (hah!) but isn't it technically impossible to protect any
content that the person can see?

In order to see an image/pdf/text file it has to be downloaded - therefore
it is accessable. There is no possible way to protect an image from being
taken (SnagIT).

or am i off subject?

I'm having trouble displaying the pdf in netscape it doesn't give me the
navigational toolbar at the top of the document.
Any ideas what would cause netscape to act this way?
Thanks,
Dave
