Heck, if you can find a way to protect images, then add me to that list. As far as I'm aware, there is no known way to protect an image from being downloaded. Disable right-click? Disable caching to the local hard drive? Displaying the image in a custom viewer? All of these methods are defeated by a simple screen capture program (or hitting the "Screen Print" button) and, if needed, a little stitching in Photoshop. Not to rain on anyone's parade, but as long as an image is displayed to a user, then it can be "stolen". All these "security" methods do is piss off the casual user who uses right-click for navigation or who doesn't want to download the "Bondware Viewer" to see images.
