    Hi. You can’t install plugins on WordPress.com:

    There are workarounds depending on the type of plugin you wanted to install.

    Thank you for your reply. I want to use Blog Protector plugin issued by PCDrome. May you know its workaround?

    Again, many thanks.

    That plugin is basically to disable right click and text selection… two things you cannot do on WordPress.COM. The following thread provides more details as well as solutions to deter people from stealing your content:

    @onlinetanpopo, disabling right click is easy to get around. All one has to do is view the source code and copy out what one wants, or in the case of an image, take a screen shot. It gives people a false sense of security and really isn’t a deterrent for those that are determined to grab content.
