REally and truly, i don't think you can protect anything.  Even if you
disable the print screen key, can u disable someone from taking a screen
capture?

If not my take is that the guy who said once it's in a browser it's not safe
could be right.

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
