Did I miss the memo?

For the last 2 or 3 days, right clicking is totally disabled for me on IIS - and ONLY IIS - works on any other site open in other tabs in the same browser, just not IIS. Doesn't matter if mouse right click or touchpad right button - NADA, no drop down menu options.

Anyone else have this issue? IS this a site-wide policy now, and I missed where it was announced?

Do you mean right-clicking on images?

I get the copyright notice thing, same as always, but the right-click menu works fine.
Using Chrome on Win8.1.

I no longer see attached images on IIS at all using IE, I now have to use Firepox to view IIS.

Cheers,
Jason.

Not Mac thanks Effie

Right clicking ANYTHING - not just image saves etc. No open in new tab etc etc.

ONLY IIS, nowhere else

I'll go with Lewis on this. IIS seems to have some funny quirks. My work PC using IE8 is quite ok on IIS but my home PC with IE11 ( I think) quite often will not open page links. Sits there with a tab lable of 'Waiting for page to load' then times out. But sometimes it works perfectly.

Hmmm, except right now at work, I am unable to open any of the IE menu drop downs with left mouse click, or rt mouse click eiether. Although other sites on other tabs work ok. Definiitely something a bit quirky with IIS somehow.

I've emptied cache and refreshed etc but sometimes at home the only method to move on is via the Forum Jump option. IE8 at work is a standard due to some compatibilty issues with legacy apps.

Strange. Since I got this new PC with Windows 8 and IE11 been getting same thing, again, only with IIS.

Tried emptying caches deleting cookies, etc.
Only thing that works every time was to switch off the modem/router and restart it. Strange.

Indeed, but kiddo, you wait... just wait and see what is arriving shortly.

Then, the lambs will be silent, and no Chianti or fava beans required...

For a MONTH, minimum.

The hunting of the Strehl will be ended... and it's no sauerkraut tainted German optic either

Doesn't matter what I try here - cache, modem restarts whatever. I have tried in in Chrome, Firefox, Maxthon, IE. All the same. ONLY IIS, and not other pages. I can right click Cloudy Nights till the cows come home, or Astromart, or even Claude's page.

But try right click anything, anywhere on IIS, and no response. Almost like Right Click Disabled like many government pages or restricted/copyrighted pages.

I cannot even right click on a spelling mistake to get a dictionary replacement/suggestion.

Weird. Guess have to live with it.

Sometimes I can't see an attached image but it appears when I hold down 'Ctrl' and roll the scroll wheel to re-size.
