Ooo first you "dunno" and now you're an expert all of a sudden [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Yeah it's a simple programming task to make a simple browser that saves all content regardless of the cache control header. However, the general masses will not be able to program such a browser. Anyway, you're right, the marked version for public display is probably the best idea. Or just have a thumbnail up for display. Also, you can script password access with any server-side scripting technology.
If someone wants to get something off the web - they will.
JavsScript is never a solution in itself because browsers such as Mozilla have the option to turn all scripts off and then where's your fancy right-click blocking script?
