What you want isn't encryption so much as digital rights management
(DRM). The same stuff the friggin RIAA is so fond of.
And Office newsgroup would probably have more info perhaps.
Security wise, if they can show it once, they can capture the info if
they're interested enough (screen grabs, or vmware movies of the
session would be the final things you couldn't avoid), so you're
really limited to making it inconvenient for them to borrow the
content.
I'd make a copyright statement visible on every slide, make the .exe
file, clap my hands together with a calculated risk for letting
someone other than you show the slides vs the possibility someone will
"steal" them, and move on with life.
Best Regards,
