Saving pics from Web

My dilemma is that my website is working just dandy, but the issue I'm having
is if someone wants to save a photo from my website. Usually on a website,
you can right click and then "save picture as." For some reason it doesn't
seem to work this way when the website is from MS Pub. I'm using 2003, and
have no other issues than this. Am I doing something wrong? Please help!

Right click is disabled in Pub 2003 web pages. I am guessing that MS got
feedback that people wanted to protect their images by disabling it.
Unfortunately they did not build in the option of enabling it.

If you have someone that wants a copy of a particular image, you can send
them a link to that particular image.

Yes...good point.

The whole idea of disabling right click saves in an attempt to protect
images seems like a wasted effort to me. If you post an image on the
internet, there is no way to stop someone if they are intent on taking it.
But I suppose it does at least discourage or slow people down.

Personally I would prefer it be optional, or enabled. It is easy enough to
add a code snippet to the page if someone wants to disable the right click
save image option. I prefer choices.
