Abstract

A copy protection system and method protect web sites and other works in computer readable medium from unauthorized access and/or reproduction. In particular, the copy protection system examines (5) a web site or other work in computer readable form to ascertain the web site structure and individual web site components (8). A web site owner (3) selects identified web site components (8, 9) for protection and provides a protection level (10) for these components. An end-user attempting (17) to access protected web site components is directed to obtain a license (23) wherein the copy protection system displays licensing terms to the end-user and administers a test (55) relating to the licensing terms (35). Upon passing the test (56), the copy protection system grants the end-user a license and enables the end-user to download software (57) that facilitates access and/or reproduction of the protected web site components. If the end-user does not obtain a license, the copy protection system permits the end-user to access and/or reproduce only unprotected web site components (31).
