Many newer programs have features that are available by way of the

the left click only.
Is their a way to create a right hand click by using some part of
the keyboard? Be careful here, since some features do require both
the keyboard and the right click, so we do not want to make a new
problem out of a fix for a problem.
Control-click has always called up the contextual menu (aka the 'right-
click' menu) on Macs. There's a preference pane called FinderPop that
will let you 'right-click' by holding down the mouse button for a
preselected amount of time.

Back when I had a single button mouse, this was an indispensable piece
of software for me. It dates back to the OS 8 days...
But by far the simplest solution is to get a cheap USB mouse with
multiple buttons or a Mighty Mouse.
