Disable IE6 resize and quick save links on images.

What follows are examples of two simple design problems with IE6's new feature image feature.
Both involve the placing of browser functions within the design area without deliberate action (such as a click or right click) by the user.
The second involves the involuntary resize of an image in a manner that may leave it looking jagged an unprofessional.

Is there a method within HTML to disable this function in IE6 for this web page?

Sorry about that everyone.

Sort of off-topic but still sort of relevant:

One of the most annoying "features" of IE 6 is the Pictures pop-up toolbar. After installing IE 6, pages that I developed would show the Pictures toolbar whenever the mouse hovered over an image; ostensibly to allow the visitor to save, print, or e-mail images on the page that weren't associated with a hyperlink. While it has always been possible to "lift" images from a Web page by right-clicking and choosing one of the Save commands, I don't think developers should make it easier for novices to use copyrighted material. This feature is very easy to switch off on a per-page or per-image basis. To turn this feature off for an entire page or site, add the following META tag to the page or include the information in the IIS headers for the site through the Internet Service Manager console:

<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />

To switch off this feature on a per-image basis, simply add the following attribute to the appropriate IMG tag:

galleryimg="no"
