I have been pretty pleased with Mozilla except that I can't seem to use the copy/paste function. The error I get reads that I need to edit my config file to allow that function.

HUH?!?

I am running XP. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, I'm not an XP person, or that familiar with Moz to know where to start. :(

What and how are you trying to copy, and where are you trying to paste to?

I use Mozilla quite a bit, but don't have any problems like you mentioned.

What version of Mozilla are you using?

Never heard of that error.

Personally, my browser of choice is now Firefox, which you might consider. It is a mozilla derivative, but doesn't seem to have the massive overhead of it's mozilla/netscape counterparts. Just an observation. :)

I've been using Mozilla since before 1.x and have never had an issue with cut/copy/paste.

I'll probably switch to Firefox when it comes to 1.0. I like the fact that the e-mail client and browser are pretty much integrated in Mozilla. Not too happy about the separate browser and e-mail client for Firefox and whatever the e-mail client was called. Then again, it's probably not that much different from people who use IE and Outlook.

Babbling.

I am running Mozilla 1.7 and I ran 1.6 prior to that.

Any pasting at all into, say this text box when I'm posting a reply on MT, won't work. This won't work with the right-click function nor the icon menu here above the text box. I can select text and successfully select "copy" but cannot paste into a text field in Mozilla.

Thanks.
