Blocking Unwanted Viewer on Published Calendar?

[Guest]

Is there any way to block unwanted users from a published calendar? We have a competitor who keeps copying our calendar info.

Boy, that's mean and of questionable ethics, but I don't think there's a way to do it at the software level.

I think the only way you could do it is if your site were hosted on your own network. Then your administrator could set some address blocking at the router level, but it wouldn't be very effective. The thief would just have to change computers and would be right back at it.

What about copyrighting your material? Then at least you'd have some basis upon which to bring legal action. Depending on the sophistication of your competitor, sometimes all it takes is a letter written in legalese on an attorney's letterhead.

Good luck. And remember, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
