To disable the toolbar, add (to the <HEAD>:
But of course the only way to really protect your images is to use a watermark or not put them on the internet

But Corey,
If we don't place images on the internet, the picture thieves will have to take up knitting. Hey Corey!
ferreseb,
As Corey pointed out, you really can't safely protect your images on the web.
You could use a No Right Click script specific to images ...
However, this will only effect amateurs. They can still do a Print Screen, paste it into an art program and then crop the image.
Another way of offering minimal protection is to place a transparent gif over the image, so the right clickers get frustrated when they attempt to paste your image.
But as Corey wisely pointed out, if it isn't on the internet, they can't copy it there.
Hope I have been of some help,

If you wish a script to disable this function for site visitors, check out ...
