I know.  I don't disable anything.

Furthermore, it seems a bit egotistical to me when photographers go to
extreme lengths (downloadable ActiveX controls and plug-ins, etc.) to
prevent people from stealing their work.  Has it occurred to them that their
might not be worth stealing in the first place?  There are plenty of cats,
dogs, sunsets, breaking waves, distant mountains, nudes, and touristy photos
in the world; most are not worth protecting, since they are a dime a dozen
anyway.

> So, what's your point?

That it's not something to worry about.  Don't put anything on your site
that you absolutely do not want stolen under any circumstances, and accept
that there will always be someone stealing the images that you do put on the
site.
