More frustration to follow, I guess. I don't know if the AutoCopy extension has something to do with the bug, I haven't tested it. I'll look into it. At this point I'm absolutely sick and tired of Firefox: they've been coasting since the release of v1.5, and the development team seems more interested in wasting time prototyping new bookmarking systems and various other "cool" features than actually fixing major problems. And when users do report a major problem, (such as the terrible caching scheme that causes Firefox to use GBs of memory after extended use), the development team just seem to brush them off. I've personally switched to Opera, and recommend it to anyone who's looking for an alternative to IE. Hmm, looks like they haven’t worked out all the kinks yet. More frustration to follow, I guess.

Could it have something to do with using the AutoCopy extension? Using FF 2.0 and TD 1.4.2 (full) I still have this issue. Could it have something to do with using the AutoCopy extension?
