Hi, I'm wondering if it's possible to block the abillity to download objects of type file (e.g. right-clicking on a file and choose "Save Link as...")?

No. Pragmatically, there is no difference between the two.

I'm asking because I have a site with PDF-files, which I want the users to read through their webbrowser (via the PDF-plugin), but not to download.

Please realise that many users don't have a PDF viewer plug-in, and that a great many of us that do, have disabled it in favour of an external helper application. Even better, it is triviality itself to write a simple shell script that pretends to be a "helper application" that does nothing but save its data stream to a file, and thus acts identically to the "Save to file" method. -- J C Lawrence Home: claw@kanga.nu ----------(*) Other: coder@kanga.nu --=| A man is as sane as he is dangerous to his environment |=--
