I cannot paste text inside of Internet Explorer

[Mike Marshall]

for the past month or so I havent been able to copy text
or paste text from anything fields inside of internet
explorer, but itll work fine in wordpad or any other
programs, I'm running windows 2000 and IE 6.0, I upgraded
from 5.5 to 6.0 and that didnt help any same problem.

Whats causing this?

Mike,
Third party programs (malware/parasites) may be causing this.

Download and run Run CWShredder from
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html
CWShredder is only about 125 KB so it could be downloaded from another
machine onto a floppy disk if necessary.

Then download, install, *update* and run both of these programs:
Ad-aware from http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/
Spybot from http://security.kolla.de/ (Remove items listed in red-others are
optional.)
Both programs should be updated after installation- before use.

Hope this helps,
Don

Henri,

Thanks for this. I wish I had seen it sooner though.
I think that this might have let me answer Other: more usefully
in a KB survey I got involved in yesterday.
