Solved Unable to Paste text into Forum Window

[itsdeb]

For about a week now, I have been unable to paste any text into a forum window from notepad, or any other program. I tried uninstalling Java and reinstalling the last update that did allow pasting but it did not work this time.

Also, what browser are you using? Have you tried an alternative?

My computer is not misbehaving in any other way. I cannot paste even a single word from notepad into a forum window.

I am using Windows Internet Explorer 9 version 9.0.8112.16421. I have not tried any other browser.

Okay, give Firefox a go:

I installed FireFox and it provides a menu where you can choose to allow the paste into the forum window. I just don't understand why this function stopped working with Internet Explorer. Thank you guys so much for your help. I really appreciate it.

If you remove the addons, IE should work.
