[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1704162"] When you insert the disk into your reader and it mounts, does Finder show the .dmg file or the files that were inside the .dmg? I ask because what may be happening is that in burning the .dmg to a CD your are in fact extracting the files from the .dmg to create the image on the CD instead of just copying the .dmg to the drive as a file. If you are burning the .dmg as a file, it should retain the password protection as that is a part of the .dmg, but if you are extracting the files from the .dmg, they aren't protected. [/QUOTE]
