Default Changing the source address of the package



I have a pay site that transmits real-time stream using Windows Media
Services 9. I need to hide my link (mms://www....).
I'd made ASP pages that generate ASX tags for the WMP that protects the
media in most cases.
The problem calls: Project URL Snooper - that goes more low-level.
This software ****ise the IP header from the packages crossing the client
Ethernet adapter.

Sugestion:
I'm trying to do something in my firewall for secure my media.
I'm styding a way to hide or change the source address of the packages.

Question:
Is this could work ?
Does anybody have another sugestion ?

That's called "security by obscurity" which is not security at all.

If you are charging for content then a better method would be to insist on some
kind of authentication (username/password) before a user is allowed access to
the content. The username/password would only be available to a user who has
paid to use the service.

Hope this helps.

regards
Marcus
