Can you advise me on how to do to keep a copy only in a password protected folder?

Some attempts to block such downloads can only be done in HTML code with the pragma meta tag for NOCHACHE however it doesn't work really well because of how different browsers read the code.

The best protection from download, is to not put the documents in the public directory at all.
If you need them online for your internal use, try keeping a copy only in a password protected folder and not in the public path.

Hi,

I am using Xitami version 2.5b4 as my web server on Windows XP
professional version 2002. 

I found that my documents - PDF files are downloaded automatically to a
machine which user uses to view them online. Is there any way that can
block the downloading? 

Any help would be much appreciated.
