We have developed a Flash movie which is being distributed to our clients as an EXE and written on a CD. My client is concerned that if he submits it to A, A may copy the file from the CD and mail it to B, C, D, E...... as an attachment. I need to do whatever is necessary to make sure that the CD is required in order for the EXE to play. Pls recommend what is to be done ASAP. Thanks

Have a text file called for example 'a.dat' on your cd then try to copy that file to the cd-rom to file called 'b.dat' this should return an error (because you cant write to a cd) then if an error is returned proceed to play the movie, but if the file did copy present an error message. sriehl Posted at 3:38 pm on Oct. 1, 2004 Even if you do figure it out, he will still be able to copy the cd and give it to his friends.
