a friend of mine is going to be selling an ebook, and doesnt want people sharing it around... is there any way to password protect it, or only allow 1 IP address to access it for example??

thanks!

erm to password protect it put it in a zip/rar file place a password on the zip/rar file. + i do beleve you can place a password on the file its self but cant besure for sure.

once the files on anyones pc theres no way for it to check the ip address and even if it could a large percentage of people have dynamic ip addresses <--- means they might change when they reconnect to the internet.

but really Even if you do protect it theres nothing you can do really to stop the person you sold it to ... who youve given the password to from passing it on to another person etc. Theres a way around everything if you really want it.
