ok before I upgrade my Explorer to version 7.03 Beta, when I put the cursor
over an image a little box appears on the top left of the image with some
icons: save as, print inmage, e-mail image. Now I need to use the right
button of the mouse.

HOW CAN I HAVE BACK THAT LITTLE BOX???????

The Save As button that appeared over images was one of my favorite features
in IE6!!! Some malicious Web sites have redefined or disabled the use of the
right-click functionality, and so the pop-over Save As button was
particularly useful.

Why would Microsoft remove that handy feature--the Save As button that
appear over images? It was ergonomically easier and quicker than
right-clicking, scrolling down to Save Image As, and click that...

Are there any workarounds, such as preventing a Web site from taking control
over my keyboard assignments (such as the right-click)? Or, how can I define
my own keystrokes (keyboard macro?) that can save the image or properly
display the right-click menu?

Here's the "why" if you want to read it.

I clicked this link and got "Content not found".
I want to know the answer as well, so the question "why" remains.

Looks like things have changed on MSDN after almost two years...  ; }

Well, probably the only significant keyphrase you need to find
your own answer is:  "Image Toolbar"

I remember seeing a blog about this during IE7 beta days
but it probably isn't around any more now either...

Here's as good an explanation as any...

http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general/browse_
thread/thread/c436a9bd35dd4434/bc412c0da04adc84?lnk=st&q=%22image+toolbar%22+(%2
2internet+explorer+7%22+OR+IE7)+(removed+OR+obsolete)++MSDN++group%3Amicrosoft.*
#bc412c0da04adc84


(Google Groups search for
   "image toolbar" ("internet explorer 7" OR IE7) (removed OR obsolete)  MSDN  group:microsoft.*
)

BTW a similar web search  yields pretty much the same conclusions
but less definitively and less completely in any one location.

FYI

Got nowhere clicking the link, but I'm guessing that webmastsers (who
disabled the right-click facility) want to prevent others from pinching the
pictures on their sites.
Don't they realise that if someone is that determined to nick their photos
then a way will always found to get around whatever restrictions they try to
enforce, so why bother protesting (like holding back the ocean with  
pitchfork).
