Internet Explorer...

Anyone know how to bypass the 'denial of right click' function in Internet Explorer when trying to copy something? Was using a trainning program (CBT) that runs throught IE and wanted to save some of the material for notes and future reference.

Running program on Win 2K Pro

The machine is mine. Not logged in on network, just using local machine with administrator profile.

Seems to be issue with program - same as on some web pages when you try to copy a picture and get that annoying pop up Window that you cannot.

I believe it's a dirty javascript trick. Try disabling javascript and see what happens (of course the page might not work without it).

Thanks for the suggestions. Will play around with some of those options and let you know how it turns out.

Well - I figured it out. Cannot take all the credit - just did some more research.

When the little 'javascript' window pops up after you right click just continue to hold the right mouse key down and press enter! The IE menu will pop up after the message goes away...

Found the answer here:

Thanks for all the suggestions. Those group consoles will come in very handy for configuring client PC's.

Don't get me wrong though, Javascript can be dead useful when used for less evil means. I'm currently running a web-based game (signups closed sorry ) that makes heavy use of javascript to make it much more usable.
