[lou]

I cannot copy and paste in IE 6. My Aol browser and
other applications copy and paste fine though? Does
anyone know how I can rectify this? Its so annoying as I
can't copy text and URL's from webpages. The problems
only appeared over the last couple of days. Help please!!

If you did not install any new software then check for parasites.
It's a long shot.

Try this: Tools > Internet Options > Advanced > Browsing
Uncheck the Enable 3rd party browser extensions

If this clears your problem then find out who the culprit(s) is/are with
these tools.

Let AD-Aware Scan your system for advertising Spyware

and:

SpyBot-S&D

p.s Reset the 3rd party browser setting.

More: This may be caused by a third-party program (adware, spyware,
parasite).
Get AdAware and SpyBot and run them both. Keep them up to date.
