    Default Computer problem - seems odd.

    My laptop has suddenly stopped copying and pasting using the right click option or using the "control & C / V" option. Any idea of how to get the feature back?

    Hmm, it also seems that I cant open any new windows. I can open new tabs though but the pages wont go to anything in the address bar and nothing happens when I try to search either. I guess Id better not log out then...

    I've had similar things happen to me. I've had to close IE and restart it. That usually fixed the problem. Sometimes I'd have to reboot the whole computer.

    P.S. Do you have virus protection on your computer?

    You need more than just Norton Anivirus for all the criminal malware that's out there now. You surely have some of it.
    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    NOTE: anything I post here, outside of a direct quote, is my opinion only, which I am entitled to. Take it for what you estimate it is worth.

    Also try and make sure your IE is up to date. Older versions of IE are having some serious problems now that new programs are coming out all over the place.

    Try looking for FireFox and using that as a browser maybe?

    IE is full of holes, use Mozilla Firfox.

    Aside from an anti-virus, you should have Ad-Aware and Spybot.

    I think it's SpyBot that has an installation option called TeaTimer, do not install it.


    EDIT: Install this to free up your computer. http://www.majorgeeks.com/CCleaner_S...bar_d4191.html
