Got a Firefox problem
Well as you can tell from the title, Im using Mozzila Firefox and I'm having a problem with it. My problem is that I can't copy and paste from websites, I've searched the net and haven't been able to find much information on the topic. Im using 2.0.0.1, but i've been having this problem with every single version I've tried. Any ideas?

In your firefox browser, go to view-toolbars-customize and it will give you a list of icons to put in your toolbar. In this list is a copy and a paste icon. I dont know why but even with the older versions of firefox it wouldnt let me copy and paste in certain applications such as my email unless I used those icons.

I can't imagine what the problem might be. I would suspect something in your computer setup if you are having that problem with all websites. Maybe your mouse, or some clipboard program, etc is a problem. I have used many versions of Firefox including the latest as well as regular Mozilla, IE, and Opera without experiencing copy and paste problems on almost all websites. There are however a few websites that do disable copy and paste operations tho but that is just those websites and has nothing to do with your browser or computer. It has been a while since I ran into one of those but they do exist. The only application I can't just highlight to copy and past text is a CAD program. Even then I can copy and paste to/from dialog boxes. I have never needed icons to copy and paste, just highlight, right click, select function, and go.
