Its so easy to lift images from the net, even with downloading and right click disabled, all you need to do is view the page source and copy the image url from the correct image tags.
The easiest way to keep track of your images is by adding keywords in the metadata, a bit like you do for websites, i usually add my name and other relevant wording, doing this enables you to scour the web net for your images by using those keywords, most image thieves dont even loook at the meta keywords, they think changing the image title is enough but its not.
Try http://www.tineye.com/
it is one that myself and 1000000s of other togs use to keep track of our images, it will soon let you know where your images are as long as they have the keywords you use. Its free too.
There is also www.picsearch.com/
but i have never used it, tin eye definitely works.
