Copy/Paste opens a new window IE7

[Tiberiuus]

When I right click and choose a text to copy while on my explorer (IE7), a new browser window opens and i have to attempt 2 or 3 times before the text copys. Every failed attempt opens a new window.

I have reset ie settings,
reset settings under the "advanced" tab to default,
and reinstalled IE7

so far none have worked

I have used IE7 for about a year and have not had this prob
A few months back I installed explorer on a fresh windows installation,
and this prob started about a months ago, (was not happening immediately after install)

anyone kno a solution please ty



update - it may just be related to the right click function because i just recently noticed it happens also just when i bring up the right click menu but before i choose a selection

This only happens while in IE7

Now this is a weird problem. I hvaent heard of anything like this.

Unistall IE7 go back to IE6 does the same thing happen?

please also do this:

• Click Here to download ToolbarCop. Save it to your desktop.
• Go to your desktop and extract toolbarcop.zip.
• Go to the extracted files
• Double click on Toolbarcop.exe
• Click on the notepad symbol:
• A notepad file should pop up, please copy and paste Everything from the notepad file and paste it back into this thread.

Thank you for the reply

I uninstalled IE7, had same issue with IE6.
I made sure to delete cookies and temp internet files to see if it made a difference, Same behavior.
Reinstalled IE7 and issue remained.

I extracted Toolbarcop as instructed, here is the report it generated...

everything looks normal there

when in IE6 please do this

Click Here to download IEfix.zip. Save it to your desktop and extract the files.
Double click on IEFix.exe
Click the Apply button

You'll be prompted for the Operating System CD or the Service Pack Files location:

If you're using Windows 2000/XP, insert the Operating System CD. For OEM systems, point to the Operating System source path when prompted. If you've applied a Service Pack separately, you need to insert the Slipstreamed Operating System CD (if you have one) or point the installer to the ServicePack source path when prompted. Mention the path as "C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386" or "C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles"

If you don't have the Windows installation CD, and if the installation source files are not present in the hard disk, you may click Cancel. IEFix will continue with DLL registration part.

Restart Windows

http://windowsxp.mvps.org/IEFIX.htm

if that fails this also

Click Start => My computer, on the mneu bar click Tools => Folder options, click on the tab View, tick Show hidden files and folders also untick Hide protected operating system files, click Apply => Ok.

Double click on C:\ => Windows => Inf, find ie.inf right click on it and click Install

When finshed restart your computer

i did just as intructed and successfully ran IEfix. the issue unfortunately still remains. i reinstalled IE7 and still same also. i can function with this issue but it is just an annoyance for it doesnt open the new window all the time, just often. I will for the time being deal with it and check back here frequently to see if another solution attempt is posted. thank you for your time...
