Strange symbol appears when I paste?!

[Guest]

Odd thing here - sometime when I copy and then paste text (normally URL's or
text from a website) when I paste it into word/outlook etc. a strange little
coloured round symbol appears instead of the text.

Any ideas how to stop this annoying bug?

Microsoft Word displays an outline instead of the picture.

Try this...
Open Word | Tools | Options | View tab | UNCheck: Picture placeholders |
Click OK

Picture placeholders
[[Displays an empty box in place of each graphic in your document. Increases
the speed at which you can scroll through and display a document that
contains many graphics.]]

This option is just to confuse people. ;-)
