Hello,
I know this question has been asked before, but it seems like the previous questions before were not answered completely.  
I am looking for a way to protect my window from being copied.  Ive searched the web and it seems like a common approach is to overwrite the default print screen hot keys.  This would work for me, but I was hoping there was a more robust approach?  
I was reading through the web and I found that it is possible for third-party applications to read the screen context themselves and copy the window ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163713.aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163713.aspx )
Is there a way to prevent this as well?   I was hoping to achieve functionality similar to Windows Media Player where if the user decides to copy the screen, the user will see a black box around the protected content.
Thanks, J
