When reviewing several of the copyright links provided on RamCT this information was consistent throughout all of the websites I viewed in regards to copyright and the WWW-
Follow the guidelines for published (print) sources, make sure that downloads are legal or attain permission, cite all sources and provide as much information necessary to relocate the original resource. The other piece of information on the sites that I viewed was that if it is found on the WWW it is published, and copyright needs to be taken into consideration.

In the US, copyright is granted on creation. There is no need to file a copyright claim (altho not doing so limits the remedies available for infringement) nor is there any need for a copyright sign or claim on the website or page. In the US, any material is ASSUMED to be copyrighted unless otherwise stated.
If you didn't write it, make it, produce it, or otherwise create it, then somebody else did and that person (or entity hiring that person) does. Being on the web or not has nothing to do with it.
One thing that *IS* common on the web is that materials are often provided with a LICENSE for some level of Creative Commons. The copyright on that material is not relinquished but the material is provided "pre-licensed" for specific applications.
