anyone know of an extension/add-on that will let me remove a publisher's ability to control my context menu and/or right-click ability ?

right now, publishers can use <body oncontextmenu="return false">

or something like if (document.layers) document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEDOWN); 

               document.onmousedown = rightclickerror;

and i end up using wget which always annoys me.
