I got one on my first try. On my Mac. I clicked and held down the mouse button
on an image and dragged it off onto my desktop.
This page in particular:

This is why I like the Flash idea. You cannot do that there. It stops most of
the common methods.

Note that there's no solid way to stop screen captures unless the person is
browsing with IE (where you can use Active X to turn off parts of their operating
system, or even delete their cache and any files you find on their HD that match
your image's name... Unethical most likely, but Active X doesn't care about
ethics...).
