- jff 14y agoThis is even more infuriating. I think I saw it on Cracked.com before I realized their content is crap. You'd copy part of the article and it would automatically include something like "read more at cracked.com blah blah blah".
- moepstar 14y agoThat's probably the work of Tynt Tracer [1] - i've too used a while ago but yeah, even tho it does work to some extent (getting users to click on that link) it also angers them so i've abandoned that. [1] http://tynt.com/ http://tynt.com/

- tomjen3 14y agoThe only place where disabling right click makes sense is for games or an editor where you need to present your own right click menu. Don't do it on websites, or even worse, assume that any click on a link means open it -- ctrl + click should open it in a new tab, but too frequently doesn't.
