Clipboard Problem

[John L]

My clipboard only allows me to paste the following: Please do not copy or
print this page.

Even into this message window that is all I can paste. It's like the
Clipboard function has failed. What has happened?

Thanks.

I've seen that message when trying to copy protected content. For example,
if I try to copy protected content to the clipboard, it will paste a message
similar to what you're seeing when I try to paste.

However, if I then copy non-protected content, functionality is normal.

If you're seeing a disabled clipboard when trying to copy/paste normal
non-protected content, then there might be a problem with the protection. I
would try rebooting Windows to see if that clears the problem.
