Re: Internet Explorer 7 Can't Copy Text



You may have a horked install of IE7. I suggest that you...

1. Uninstall IE7 (which automatically returns you to IE6) per http://www.ie-vista.com/kbase2.html

2. Uninstall all toolbars

3. Reinstall IE7 per http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install, and using http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/default.mspx as the installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.

I have installed both FireFox and Internet Exlplorer 7 and select one or the
other based on compatibility wit other programs.
I can copy and paste in FireFox but in IE7 there is no drop down menu when
I right click on a highlighted text.

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
