Unfortunately, there is not. Unless you figure out a way to use Silverlight or something kinky like that to block people from jacking the file, then yea. But I do not even know if that would work. HTML 5 may have some security features to it, but there again I do not know if it would be possible and would probably require recoding the games.

 

As of right now, I know of no ways to prevent this. You can make it harder, sure, by using javascript etc to serve the file. But in the end, the swf file has to be downloaded to the end user's computer one way or another.

This thread is more than a year old. Please don't revive it unless you have something important to add.
