Unable to paste in IE

[Dave]

G'day all

Just wondering if anyone has hit the problem of being
unable to paste into IE (address bar or form fields on
websites) and what the solution is.

No error messages, just doesn't paste, paste and drag and
drop enabled in options.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Meant to mention, running Win XP SP1, paste is no go
whether it's shortcut keys, mention or right click.

No idea how, as I'd tried on 3 or 4 occasions previously,
but after running Norton System Works and Sophus a few
more times, seems to have fixed it . . . better to be
lucky than good I guess!

Spoke too soon

It would appear I can cut and paste urls but nothing
else, guessing it must be some sort of security
setting . . . but where?

Help!
