Whenever I want to copy something and paste it somewhere else, I highlight it and hit "control-C", then highlight where I want it to go and hit "control-V". The last week or so, when I hit "control-V", I just get a little box with an arrow pointing up in the upper left corner of the e-mail Here's a jpeg of it. I thought it might have been a certain file type that was hijacked by some program I installed, but I can't find this icon in "filetypes". Anybody have any ideas? I miss my "control-V"...


P.S. Bummer! how can I insert a jpeg in my post? I thought the "Insert Special Item" box at the top would do it.
That's what I get for thinking. That makes too much sense. :-)
