a lot of the developers i have worked with over the years were unreliable, shitty coders that thought they were better than they were, and would bail on a project before completed...
so, if i were you, i would be happy to have clients that are professional enough to want to protect their idea regardless of what the idea is or even if its been done years ago..

Summed up nicely.
There are plenty of programmers who will do as marketsmart has said. They will even use that as a foot note when being considered for a new bid. Including the web site, and saying they will just "borrow the code" from some other site they did for another client.
Whether they are a one man band with an idea, or a corporation with 100 employees is irrelevant. Their money deposits into your bank account, and spends the same. If you want the job, respect their wishes or not.
