Copy/pasting problem...wtf

[elitebear4]

my computer doesnt allow me to use the copy and paste function. it doesnt let me use ctrl + alt + c/v or go to edit and press copy/paste...what could be the problem

spyware might be a problem, it causes all sorts of weird problems, try using Ad-aware and then use spy bots (yes you need to use both) both are free, google search for them. If that doesn't work then windows is busted, nuke it and reinstall

...before you go ahead and nuke Windoze, I'd suggest waiting for a few other opinions on your prob, I mean, formatting yur HDD cause you can't copy/paste seems kinda drastic to me...

...BTW, what OS are you running? XP/Pro/Home/98?, the more info, the easier it is to help... :)

definitely more info needed. OS/apps attempted in. What you're trying to copy/paste.

alright i got it fixed. i dled spybot and was about to remove the source. i read about something called a worm blaster file that created problems like that and it was exactly what i found
