In the past, I've just marked them as "Hidden" and "Read-Only" within the
File Properties. If you turn on "Show Hidden Files", you'll be able to see
them (and place them on a CD, for instance). Most "normal" users have "Show
Hidden Files" turned off, so they won't see them. And you can't steal what
you can't see (or something like that).

Subject: <lingo-l> protecting external media?


hi list

just a quickie, has anyone any experience in
protecting external media i.e. movies & soundtracks so
the end user can't steal them & use them for their own
personal gain?

if you can answer yes to the above question i would be
very grateful if you could share your knowledge.

thanks
