Web Protector allows you to protect your Web pages from unwanted copying.
Protection includes HTML code, JavaScript, VBscript, text, links, and
graphics. It encrypts your Web pages and renders the source code unreadable,
making it impossible for others to read and steal your work.


Hmmm, and I tried their "sample page" (http://www.protecthtml.com/product/wp/sample31.htm) which supposedly is protected from text selection, printing, and several other options. I use OmniWeb (for Mac OS X) as my web browser, and the _only_ protection that worked was their source encryption. Using Internet Explorer, source encryption and text selection worked correctly, but I was still able to print, right-click, etc. Harumph.
