You can't. Anything that is viewed on a computer can be saved on that
computer. You can't stop it. Protect the image with a copyright
and/or text overlay that makes it less useable to a someone who wants
to use it. You actually can stop right clicking, but that doesn't
prevent it from being copied out of the cache, and really annoys
people looking at your web site.

I've never seen one that stopped my Mac, or my Firefox, or any browser with

It really is annoying since a lot of people use right click to bookmark a
site.
And it does NOTHING to prevent someone from grabbing your image.
Do a Google for a script "disable right click" there are tons of them out
there.

Despite what anybody tells you - it IMPOSSIBLE to stop people viewing your
code or copying your pictures
To save you looking any further - it can't be done.

Oh yay, another one.
Doing that is the mark of a total amateur. But then again, so is asking
about it.

I do not agree - asking about anything is the mark of someone willing
to learn. Insisting the impossible can be done, or accepting a
non-solution, is amateurish.

Obvously you have not read the recent post on the legal ramifications
of annoying someone. That's pretty annoying to realize.

Normally I would agree, but in a subsequent message they stated they were
going to "go ahead and do it anyway".

Not in a newsgroup, if a quick reading of one or two days' messages would
reveal that the question gets asked repeatedly.
When they ask that question, people might as well first wave their arms and
shout, "I've spent no time at all on your forum and have no idea about the
type of questions asked here."

I wonder if there's any question, in any newsgroup, that is repeated nearly
as often? It's truly amazing and goes far beyond a response of "Google is
your friend." Indeed, all one need do is scroll down a page (if that). The
question is asked over and over and over and over again.

Have you ever tried searching or browsing the Microsoft web forums,
where many of these questions are asked? It is not as easy as
searching or scrolling through the newsgroup versions.

Tom is right. We technicians often suffer from the "forgotten user
experience" syndrome. We've been in this game so long that we expect people
to know things that seem obvious to us. But I am often reminded of the
nearly total lack of understanding of computers and the Internet that exists
in the mind of the average user. It's a scary thing when you realize that
you have to design your products to be used by such people, who are far more
numerous than we. But if you want to be successful, unless you design for a
very limited and technical audience, you have to keep that in mind at all
times. You just have to find a private outlet for your frustration.
Anyone asking a question for the first time, or an admitted "newbie" should
be treated with courtesy and respect, as Tom put it. Now, when someone is
given good advice by a dozen experts and then chooses to ignore it, well...
At that point I'm not going to judge anyone for getting annoyed!
