say i want to send someone a document from word or i send someone my pic however i do not want them to use it after that one time or be ablet to change it or copy it. is there a program out that will allow me to have the file erase itself on the recipients end. i know this sounds funny but can the file self destruct in like 24 hrs. im really interested in finding out information on this topic. i feel that once a pic is posted or sent anyone can use that pic or alter it and the same for a document. now i know for documents adobe prevents people from altering the document but what if just dont want the recipient to have a file for longer than a week or day? sorry for this rant. i hope someone can point me in the right direction

I don't think a program that you're looking for would be that effective. There are ways around "protected" files. As for "self destructing" pictures, to get around that would be a screen shot with the file opened.
