How to export from illustrator CS5 to non-editable PDF

$

Hi all,  I'm on Illustrator CS5 and are trying to export my artwork to a PDF format in such a way as so others with illustrator cannot open the file and access its layers and pull out the artwork etc.

 

I click File, "Save a copy", choose PDF   I thought that is what unchecking the "Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities" would do it, but when I uncheck it I still have access all the layers when I open the PDF.

 

Is there another setting I am missing etc?   I've tried saving the artwork as a jpg, and doing print export to PDF but I just cant get the same crispness at the optimised file size like I was when doing "Save a copy".

 

Am I missing a setting or, do I need to do something else to the artwork before saving the PDF?

 

Any help would be great
