Disabling "Save" or "Save As" option

Question

When someone listens or watches media in QuickTime, whether from my websites or if I send them a file, it gives them an option of Saving it.
Any idea how I can disable the Save or Save As option when someone opens an audio video file in QuickTime?
I couldn't find a thread/answer anywhere...
Thank you,

O.K. Here's the deal in regard to publishing via iWeb.
iWeb only uses the QuickTime browser plug-in and anything beyond its basic features would require some "hand editing" of the Published pages. This wouldn't be very hard to do since all of the files can be found on your iDisk. But editing a published page doesn't change the information stored inside the iWeb app. Each time you re-publish an existing page you'll need to make the changes again.
Sounds very complicated, doesn't it?
Here are the steps for iWeb version 2:
Open the special javascript file using any "plain text" editor (TextEdit set to plain text is enough). This .js file is made for each page that holds QuickTime content and your Welcome page uses this one:
http://web.me.com/loriraemartin/www.AudioGirlProductions.com/Welcome_files/Welco me.js
If you click the link you'll see the "gibberish" code in your browser. Take a look at the code and then use your browser to save it. Make sure it keeps the .js file extension.
Now you have a local copy of the Welcome.js file on your machine. Open TextEdit and set its preferences to "plain text" and then open the .js file.
You'll see three different lines of code that hold a link to your QuickTime file. All you need to do is use some simple copy/paste routine to add a new line of code to the three html tag code.
<param name="kisokmode" value="true" />
Copy the text I've posted above. Add it to the three locations in the .js file just before the closing "object" tag and save the file.
Use the Finder Go menu to mount your iDisk. Open the Web/Sites/iWeb folder and then the sub folder that holds your Welcome page. You'll see the Welcome.js file in there.
Use the Finder and drag and drop to move the new .js file to the same folder that holds the old one. When prompted that the file already exists click the "Replace" button to upload the new file.
To test the page visit your Welcome page again and "reload" it in your browser to get the "new" version. Test the page to make sure things work as expected and then move on to the next page (folder and javascript file) and add the new code as many times as needed to it. If your page holds multiple QuickTime files you'll need to add the code to any line that holds an object tag.
Lots of work that may seem daunting to a novice iWeb user. Since iWeb didn't change much with the introduction of iLife '11 these steps may be the only way to get the kisokmode tag into your pages.
