Right click is not working in IE 7

Hi,

certainly, right click menu is not displaying in IE 7 in win XP SP2.

Then, i tried to restore the previous point, eventhough its not
working.

Also, I uninstall IE7 and its not working in IE 6 also.

But, right click is working fine at other places.

Please help me to solve this prob asap.

Thanks,
Prabha

Hello,

Try running IE with add-ons disabled

*** If you are running IE6: ***
Start Control Panel Internet Options Advanced (tab) UNCHECK "Enable
third-party browser extensions" OK

Run IE6 now.

If it works now, one of your add-ons is causing the problem. Start Internet
Explorer as normal, Tools, Manage Add-ons, Enable or Disable Add-ons.

Disable all the add-ons. Enable third-party browser extensions in Internet
Options.

Restart your browser and enable the add-ons one by one till the problem
appears and you get the culprit.

*** If you are running IE7 ***
Go to Start Programs Accessories System Tools
Internet Explorer 7 (No Add-ons) to start without any add-ons. Try using the
browser and see if the same problem arises.

If the problem does not occur again, start IE7 normally, go to Tools
Manage Add-ons and disable all the add-ons. Enable each add-on one at each
time and see if the problem occurs again. Once it occurs again after
enabling an add-on, you have nailed the culprit.

(if the menu bar does not appear, hit the Alt key on the keyboard)

You may also want to do a spyware scan by using the following programs

Is it one particular web site that you can't right click on?

This functionality can be disabled by javascript on the site.

Alister

Its not working in all the web sites.

Hi Prabha,

First, when replying to messages in this forum, it would be best to click
the QUOTE button, to include previous replies, so the various helpers can
read only your latest message, and see all previous things that have been
tried so far. Here are some more things to try:

In Internet Explorer:
On the menu bar, click Help, click About.
What is the complete Version number information?

Can you right-click in the Address Bar above the page?
Can you right-click on the Tool Bar above the page?
Can you right-click on the Title Bar at the very top of the browser?

As a work around, if you have 2 Windows logo keys (Win-key) on your
keyboard, look to the right of the right Win-key for a Context Menu key. (An
image of a page with arrow pointer.) Click anywhere on a web page and press
that Context key to get a context menu. If you cannot right-click a link and
"Save Target As", you can instead, left-click the link and hold the button
down, then slide away from the link, press ESC key to cancel the drag
operation, and release the button. Then press Context key for that link's
options menu.

Another thing to try. Close Internet Explorer. Right click on your desktop.
Click New. Click Text Document. Name it TEST1.HTM and press Enter. Answer
YES to the Are You Sure question. Double click that empty web page file to
open in Internet Explorer. Right click in the blank page area. Anything?
Press your Context key. Does the context menu appear in the upper left part
of the page display area?

Were you having any other computer problems in the week before the right
click stopped working, or are you still having other problems?

Since Internet Explorer is certainly in a CONFUSED state, you cannot be
certain that its security features are working while on the Internet, and it
is very possible that malware is infesting your system. You should not
attempt a Repair Install while your computer is confused. You need to make
sure you have backup copies of any Valued Data on your computer. You need to
do a full malware scan to see if malware is the source of your problem.

1. Malwarebytes anti-malware
http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

2. See if you can download and run the MSRT manually:
http://www.microsoft.com/security/ma...e/default.mspx
Run the FULL scan, not the QUICK scan! You may need to download the
MSRT on a non-infected machine, then transfer MRT.EXE to the infected
machine and rename it to SCAN.EXE before running it.

3. Run the Windows Live Safety Center's 'Protection' scan (only!) in
Safe Mode with Networking, if need be:
http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/howsafe.htm

4. Run a COMPLETE check for hijackware, including posting the requested
logs in an appropriate forum, not here.

Yeah... stop bumping. It doesn't do anything because you are posting
to Usenet.

ok, malwarebytes found 3 objects, which I deleted. computer rebooted,
but no help. also forgot to add before that I did try opening IE without
addons, but that didn't help either...

(previously)

sorry to open up an old thread (and hijack it as well) but i'm having
the same issue, and this is the most info I've found relating to it. as
far as right clicking goes, I can Rclick on the address bar, title bar,
and tool bar, as well as anywhere else on the computer (desktop, office,
etc.) however, Rclicking on any highlighted text in IE or on a pic
results in nothing. I've tried many sites, so its not the java based
issue. I also tried that context menu key with Lclick, and again, it
works everywhere except IE. even tried the blank test page with same
results. my ver. number is 7.0.5730.13, downgraded from IE8 cuz i
thought that might have been the issue, but obviously it wasn't. I think
this whole problem started when I D/L'ed IE8, but I can't remember
exactly. I'm doing a full malwarebytes scan now... I'll let you know
what it comes up with. if there's any other things to try, please
advise. thanks.

Burn BitDefender, or another program listed at the link below, to a CD
(using a working machine) and test the infected machine with it.
BitDefender also has a Rootkit checker on the Linux Desktop; run it if
you think that's the problem:

http://www.techmixer.com/free-bootab...download-list/

Download the executable rather than the .iso image.. it prompts you to
insert a CD and burns the file, no problem.

Then run these:

Malwarebytes© Corporation
http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam/program/mbam-setup.exe

SuperAntispyware
http://www.superantispyware.com/supe...freevspro.html

Right-click is slow or weird behavior caused by context menu handlers:

umm... can you read? if you look a few posts up you'll see what the
issue was. if you don't have anything constructive or in any way helpful
to add, i'm sure there's some erectile disfuntion sites that you could
troll instead of hindering progress here.

On Usenet there are NO "few posts up" you fool. I am not reading your
posts from that pitiful web "forum" you are using.

Note how many people show "n/a" for their number of posts. NONE of
them can see a "few posts up". Only the few who show an actual post
count can see.
