1. A protective window covering system comprising a conventional building window having a window frame and an inflatable protective window covering, wherein multiple hooks are mounted around the perimeter of the window frame, wherein the inflatable protective window covering is comprised of a single, uninterrupted inner cavity and walls wherein the walls of the protective covering enclose the inner space of the protective covering, and wherein the walls of the protective covering include at least two rows of fibers extending throughout at an angle that is offset by 15° to 75°, an inflation orifice wherein the inflation orifice operates to allow inflation of the protective covering with air, and a securing means wherein the securing means attaches loosely to the window frame in an uninflated state, wherein the inflatable protective covering does not include a support frame, wherein the security means includes multiple eye hooks are attached to the perimeter of the protective covering with the eye hooks being adapted to correspond to the hooks mounted on the window frame, and wherein inflation of the protective covering applies tension to the securing mechanism thereby securing the protective covering in position. 2. The inflatable protective covering system as specified in claim 1 wherein the protective covering is inflated with air. 3. The inflatable protective covering system as specified in claim 1 wherein the fibers extend through the walls at an angle that is offset by 40° to 50°. 4. The inflatable protective covering system as specified in claim 1 wherein the fibers are glass fibers or carbon fibers. 5. The inflatable protective covering system as specified in claim 1 wherein the fibers extend through the walls at an angle that is offset by 30° to 60°. 6.
