Annemehr, again:
I used to use Netscape all the time, until I kept running into problems
on different sites I wanted to use -- particularly Yahoo mail. The
(one?) advantage of IE is that everything works in it.
To copy and paste, I use the mouse (just seems easier to me). I
highlight what I want to copy, and right click on it, and select "copy"
from the pop-up menu. Then, to paste, click the cursor where you want
it, and right click there, and select "paste."
Since I'm using the mouse to do the selection, it always seemed silly
to switch to the keyboard to c&p.
Annemehr,
whose husband thinks it's silly to use the mouse to c&p
