The simplest way is not to show it to visitors :-)\nI guess, you want your visitors to hear the music and not to get the file. In any case, your file will be stored at the browser cache and who wants it, will get it. Try to use streaming format - this way the packets are played when they arrive to the client computer.

Also be wary that the downloading of files of this nature is illegal.

It depends on the video ,wether it is streaming or it is attached. if it is streaming you cant download it by any method nor by right click otherwise try using right click save target as.

Depends from where...Sites like thatvideosite.com and putfile.com you can just right click>properties>copy the link it gives and save as. If it's a flash movie like the ones from Google Video, then you need to download them from this website and use Riva FLV Encoder to convert it to a wmv/avi/mpg/etc...\n\nDon't forget some sites give the "Download Movie" option.

Does the source file exist? Doesn't your firewall block downloading components?

Block it via group policy.  Make sure that you do not have automatic updates enabled on your network.  The easier way would be to have a WSUS server running on any server, and controlling your updates through that management console.

Read the EULA. There will almost certainly be enough legal butt-covering in there that your suit will be futile.\n\nYour best bet is to find a hacker friend who can figure out what it does, and possibly a way to turn it off. It may be some sort of anti file sharing program, or it may just be some stupid quick-launch thing to make it more convenient.

Ignore it. Usually, if you download it from the Macromedia site, no viruses are attached or anything.

The easiest way to disable it is to navigate to control panel in your start menu, add/remove programmes, from the window that comes up select the option on the right hand menu set programme access and default. In the new window Click on the custom tab, scroll down to Choose default media player and take the tick out of the box in the windows media that says enable access to this programme.\n\nIt's as simple as that!

Because they put in the script to disable the saving file function. You may need a webpage saver. But since they don't want you to make a copy, just let it be.

If you've got spam/virus/grayware protection, configure it to allow the specific website you are downloading.\n\nIf all else fails, go to control panel, firewall&protection menu, and under allowed sites,,, allow (again) the specific site you are downloading from.\n\nThank You!\n-G_Roskamp_3
