Title: Prevent the download of images
Post by: naoko15 on January 27, 2013, 19:14:44 PM
Hello, i'd like to know if there is a way / module / extension (commercial or not) to prevent images in product details to be copied or downloaded. I've seen an extension that does this but it is not compatible with my version of Joomla / VM ( J2.5, VM 2.0.12f).

Thanks.

Just in case it helps someone else. The extension Joomsimple Content Protection does the trick wonderfully. It prevents right click copy of images.

All of these copy protection scripts have one thing in common. They are easy to circumvent with a few mouseclicks. If you can see an image in your browser, there always is a way to copy or download it.

I know, but muy client is very insistent on preventing the images on their site to be copied. They want, at least, to make it difficult for inexpert users to be able to do this, even though, I told them expert ones will have it easy.
