Locking a Flash Movie on a webpage?

ButtermilkJack · 2006-01-09 14:22:57

If you're browsing a website and you come across a flash movie on the page, can you right-click and save the flash movie like you can an image? If so, does anyone know if you can secure a flash movie on a webpage so that it can't be downloaded/copied?

You cant secure anything. If someone want a file there are many ways to get it.
There are also many ways in which to make it a little more difficult to get it.
You cannot normally right click to download a flash file.

sorry to say, pretty much anything can be saved from the internet, there is no really fullproof way to prevent people from downloading/saving files to their machine
