if you use opera, you can just click the scroll wheel on any link to open it in a background tab
so convenient!

in Win2k (and maybe win XP im ont sure) the administrator can stop you from right clicking! so if your on a network .. and someone in your house has admin access and a bit of PC knowledge, they may have disabled right click!!!

If all else fails use the TAB button to get the link then press that menu button on the keyboard. That has the same effect like right clicking
