I have no trouble copying an image alone to the clipboard. What has changed
is that a section of highlighted text that INCLUDES some images now leaves
out the images. In the clipboard viewer, you can see that the images are
left out and only the text copied in. If you look at the clipboard viewer
options, you can see that the html & other options are unselected and greyed
out. Clipboard has changed. I would like to get a copy of the fully
functioning clipbrd.exe that I was using before.
Where you would want to paste editable text that includes images would be
into Word (or Wordpad). I have a feeling it has something to do with the
new, so-called "Trustworthy Computing" wherein MS is trying to force you to
allow internet access for applications, as they say with Longhorn they will
be able to delete things from your computer remotely or even shut your
computer down if they suspect "piracy."
I don't do music or piracy - I just want to copy and paste my
check-images-with-the-bit-of-text again in one easy copy/paste like have
have been doing these past 5 years.

Subject: Re: [PCSOFT] Clipboard no longer accepts images from websites
Hi Ann,
Are you using Internet Explorer (Version 6 or higher) because if you are
you should have no problem "Ctrl C" copying then "Ctrl V" pasting any image
from a website. I also use Mozilla Firefox (Version1) and have no problem
copying any image. Your problem lies elsewhere. Give the experts at PC Soft
more data about the programs you use and your computer's data and
configuration and we will be better able to help.
