Thanks for your response Michael. Do I infer, as per your response, that what is finicky is the XP clipboard, but that things were somewhat fixed in Win7?? Or does win7 share the same problem?. I' d be more than happy to try your suggestion, but sadly my netbook hard drive took a dive and I lost both my XP SP3 system and the Ubuntu VM I had setup wiithin it. Since my last backup was a couple months old, all is gone for good. I am right now using a Fedora Linux LiveCD booted off a pen drive. I will, however, attempt to reinstall XP SP3 once I get a new hard drive, as it worked much better than Win7 on a single-core Atom CPU with 2Gigs of system RAM.
