Snake oil. You sell it to customers who don't know that it doesn't work.

That CopyNo mouseover is pretty annoying... I wonder about things like
this.  Do they think such a thing actually prevents re-distribution of
the image?  Or are they just raising the bar a bit to avoid the lowest
form of criminal ... like locking your doors?

All you need do is turn off javascript or read the html and wget the
image.  Even if they created server-side, single hit, randomly named
image files, you can still browse your cache.  What's the point of the
annoying CopyNo mouseover?
