Are you really using Firefox 3.5? If so, thne you first need to update to Firefox 17.0.1 IMMEDIATELY (3.5 is horribly slow, outdated, and VERY VERY Insecure). Update Firefox to the latest release

After updating, tell me what exact shortcut you are trying to change.

Right-click context menus are generated dynamically and have menu entries that depend on what kind of element you click.
If you would change such a access key then you would have to be very careful not to introduce some ambiguity.

I don't know if this extension can make such changes as I've never used it.

I can’t believe that some firefox users think that they are so pro and looks they just discovered themselves as savior or something and always going like hey I am the king of solving problems. When guys like you Tylerdowner coming with such an answer wow you should update your software it’s the god dam old one it feels me like I am asking I am in the middle of bloody desert and I need to go to the bathroom and then you come up and say hey I have the answer you have to go to the bathroom. Please stop helping when you can’t.
