This is specifically (and has always been) impossible. You cannot ever get rid of those context menu items. As in never ever ever. The best you can hope for is supressing the context menu and replacing it with your own, which is sort of possible with a javascript hack I believe (google stuff about javascript flash context menu, I think Dan of polygeek.com was doing some tests trying to figure it out).
