The Site Advider is definitely not an essential tool. Several add-ons do
exactly the same thing, so it's totally safe to turn it off. It doesn't
affect the vital antivirus and whatsoever functions of McAfee.
So the problem isn't with SM2.0 itself, which is why not everyone
experienced it.

YES!! This has been a major PITA for me since switching to SM2.0. I run
the Yahoo security suite (which is McAfee, of course). Disabling in
msconfig (under the services tab) has restored the copy/paste
functionality.
Thank You. JK
Thanks for mentioning exactly how to stop the site adviser. I had
looked under STARTUP for a program and had found none, thinking it was
not starting on my computer.
I do have a question for you however: Why did the copy and paste not
fail all the time when the site adviser was starting in SERVICES? That
fact along with it not being in STARTUP made me think there was
something else wrong.
