Its not that easy. The procedures for each protection are different and can be quite complex. There are different ways for example of copywrighting something. You can start by placing a
copyright notice on your product. You can send yourself the source code via US mail in a sealed envelope for example. But the best protection you get is if you do several of these things in combination. I don't have time to go into it all here. If you are genuinely interested i would suggest reading up on it. Google and Wikipedia are a good starting point for you.

No its not. Go read up about it if before you say things like that. There are certain things you need to do before your code is copyrighted.
