I want to inlcude some videos on a website. I'd like it to be possible to make them viewable on the site but not downloadable. They are Windows Media Video files. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Stream them, then they can't be saved. I would use flash video as webmonkey says. You can get a 30 day free trial of flash from www.macromedia.com

If you want to stick with windows media check out www.playstream.com

Best of luck.

Bear in mind that if the user badly wants to get the video, there are still ways.
