Good day all. I want to copy protect my CD contents, so that others can only read the files but could not be able to copy the contents from the CD. Anybody could tell me where can i download such a software and what is that software name.? help me.

Thanks for all the people who replied for this Ques. If you people say its hard to copy protect the contents in a CD, then how Games CD are developed. (We cant copy the contents from cd but we can play the Game right) Actually im developing a Software. I want to market that thing in a CD format. so that the People can see and read the contents but should not be able to Copy or Clone the contents.

It cannot be done. If they can read the files, this means that a copy of the file is loaded into the memory of their computer. You can't prevent them from saving this copy elsewhere (i.e., effectively copying the files).
You can protect the contents of the CD from unauthorised reading by encrypting it (e.g., with TrueCrypt) - but if somebody can read (and make sense of) the files on it, they will be able to copy these files, too.

You can't copy protect digital content.

there is no need of any software. set the status of the files as hidden and
write them on the C.D.
