[thelist] Disabling the print screen button

[Peter Kaulback]

In the wee hour of 02:11 PM 5/9/01 -0400, Michael Clark bequeathed such 
tales as these:
>Good Afternoon Everyone!
>
>I work in a marketing research company that has recently started doing 
>internet surveys.  While this may be exceptionally convenient, it is not 
>the most secure.  We often have sensative information that needs to be 
>displayed on the screen, but we must make sure that this information 
>cannot be downloaded in any way, shpae or form.  We have disabled every 
>way to download the information that we can think of except for the print 
>screen button, which comes standard on most keyboards.
>
>Does anyone know of any way using ASP, VBScript, JavaScript, HTML, Perl, 
>...or really...anything that disables this key?
>
>Thanks,
>mike

Don't bother, there are far too many screen capture programs, web capture 
programs etc. that no tool can address all.  What if someone accesses the 
site with a tablet PC?
Too many if's.  Just my 2 cents
