No.
You've already sent them the image.
A client is having all kinds of problems with ebay people linking to their
images.
You can make it *harder*, but you'll not stop someone

img src=showImage.cfm

Then I suppose it will be geocities' problem.

With cfcontent, the link to the image will be something like
src=myimage.cfm?id-10. In which case, myimage.cfm holds the cfcontent tag
