*Jaap*, I tried "Free Clipboard Viewer 3.0" just now ad on the very first try when I copied to the clipboard it looked like Steve's "bad.png". There was actual HTML data in the "HTML Format" and "text/html" fragments, but there was no plaintext fragment. Thus, when I paste to a plaintext widget in another program, there is nothing to paste. After repeating the Copy command on the exact same selected text, I got plaintext. I am going to try to build a 64-bit package tonight from the unreleased 0.66 code and see if it behaves any better (assuming there are 64-bit builds of all the dependencies which I can use), but I'm not expecting it to change anything.
