Hi! A really odd thing just happened to me - instead of pasting the text I previously copied, my Word document pasted a picture, and not just any picture but something like a photo of my Desktop. When I tried copy/paste again it was ok. It didn't cause me any trouble and it only happened, once but I'd still like to know why it happened. Thx

This happens to me on a regular basis, actually. You must have accidentally pushed the 'Print Screen' button after copying whatever it is you were aiming for, so the original clipboard content got replaced by a copy of your current desktop. I do this often because my keyboard has the "Prt Scr" button right above Page Up/Page Down, so it's real easy to press without noticing. I think you can disable this somewhere in Win XP settings…
