I have no idea why, but a couple of days ago I discovered that I could no longer "Copy" and Paste". I've tried all kinds of different things but the problem continues.

Any suggestions on how to correct this problem will be greatly appreciated!

Would have to know what operating system you are using, Windows XP? Also does it not work in everywhere or just in a single program like your browser?

Of course!

The system is Vista and it stopped working only in the browser - Firefox.

I haven't had any trouble. I use the latest Firefox at work on XP. Here at home I use it on Linux. I have not had this copy/paste bug. Maybe a reinstall of Firefox is in order.

Just from looking around a bit it sure does appear to be a common problem that can range anywhere from malware to conflicting programs locking up the clipboard. I'd definitely start with checking for updates to FF and clearing all browser cache.
