By using a little JavaScript, I know how to disable the right click feature on a web page. I use this feature to prevent people from downloading and saving images from my sites. However, I have noticed on Windows 2000 and XP, when you move your cursor over an image, a small window pops up giving you the option of saving the image, emailing it or printing it. My question is this...

Does anyone know how I can prevent people from downloading my images when they are using Windows 2000 or XP?

You can not prevent people from copying your pictures. Your "no-right-click" script does not stop anyone who has even slightest idea of what he/she is doing (give me the URL of your site and I'll give you 10 ways of going around your "protection"), but really annoys the rest of your visitors.
