You can request which browser window toolbars (location, toolbar,...)
should be visible and which browser window functionalities should be
turn off but you can not turn them off, remove them or disable them by
pure force. For the sake of usability and accessibility to content (not
to mention accessibility laws), it is in the best interests of users
(and web designers as well) to be able to use browser windows with
resizability turn on, with a status bar and with rendered scrollbars if
needed, if content overflows requested window dimensions. Even major
browser manufacturers understood that and support this perspective.
Everytime you alienate browser windows, you just take a chance to
alienate your users and their experience and retroactively you alienate
the web designer's very own interests.
There are UI settings, menu items, customizations and browser add-ons
which will give users absolute veto and final word over scripts which
try to turn off toolbars and browser functionalities.

No. At least not that I know of. There are 3 bugfiles at bugzilla on
this regarding Mozilla-based browsers. But for MSIE 6 and Opera, there
is no way of verifying if toolbars and browser window functionalities
have been enabled or disabled. In a sense, this is good news too.
