Source means your .NET Code or HTML? If .NET code, there no need to worry, your code will not be visible since everything will be rendered into HTML. Actually you cannot disble the IE's menu item at any cost since ASP.NET application has nothing to do with Client Side. But your can disable the Context Menu (Right-Click Menu) of your browser by capturing the Mouse Events of the Page

The simple and straight answer is You can not. If your website needs to be rendered on a standards compliant web browser, the HTML ought to go. If you are really really feeling insecure, you may like to host a simple index.htm page and host an ActiveX Control. This ActiveX Control would have a secure connection with your parent webserver through proprietary handshake mechanism.

quite what you think is so important about your HTML is beyond me. Believe me, you're not doing anything so unique that allowing people to view your HTML will in some way harm you, your website, or your rights as a web developer. That said, there is one sure fire way of not allowing ANYBODY to view your HTML. Its called the "not putting it on the internet" method. Im sure you can work out the details.
