Do you know how when in IE6, you hold your mouse over an image, and that little gray window pops up over it with options to mail the image, or save, or print?

Is their any way to turn this off? It seems to do this mainly on large images..

This will turn it off globally. I think there is also a way to disable it on an image-by-image basis.

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

Not much will stop anyone who wants the picture though!

If you want to turn this off in your own browser, go to Tools->Internet Options and choose the Advanced Tab.

Scroll down to the MultiMedia section.

Uncheck the option for "Enable Image Toolbar"

If you remove all the images from your site, you won't see it :)

volatilegx:

That would only work if you made the user affirm they had done that before viewing the site.

They were asking how to disable it from a webdev side.
