One Finger Snap is a Preference Pane that brings up the contextual menu whenever you click and hold down the mouse button. This means that you can do everything with a single-button mouse that you can do with a 2-button mouse.
Don't throw away that 1-button mouse.
Don't carry around a clunky mouse with your powerbook.
Don't think that you've lost a second mouse button when you switch from that other OS.
Just click and hold wherever you would normally right-click. One download link is for the preference pane itself, the other is for the source.

Works well, not a single issue so far, and very reasonably priced.

Regarding different behavior in different apps, this is unfortuantely the way things happen in OS X. Some apps handle right-clicks one way and some handle them another. In general, if you hold the mouse button down until you hear the click sound, then release it, then you should get the contextual menu in just about any application.
And of course, if you email me at feedback@oldjewelsoftware.com, I'll know about bugs quicker than if you just post them on macupdate.

In Finder list-view, if you click and hold the scrollbar, contextual menu pops up.
If you double-click a word, but keep the mouse button down for the second click (or triple click for a paragraph) the contextual menu will not not show up, unless you release your mouse after the hold - in text apps, like DevonThink, VoodooPad, Hog Bay Notebook, TextEdit, Apple Pages, etc. MS Word and AbiWord show correct behavior and show the contextual menu during the hold.

While I agree that you can do this with FruitMenu and iScroll2... I want a single purpose app that can do just this one thing. I don't want all that other stuff. (Also iScroll2 only works if you have a track pad... what about iMac owners with a one-button mouse?)
FinderPop was fantastic and finally with OFS there is an OSX replacement.
