Default Can't copy Msg Source ???

When I get spam and want to copy the Msg Source to send back to my
ISP I can copy it? I used to be able to? Any ideas what happened?
I've done a Virus Check and I have Spy-Bot and a Firewall. Thanks!

What do you use for an email client?

Choose a message. Press Ctrl-F3 to get the Source. Click anywhere in the
main pane then press Ctrl-A to Select All, then Ctrl-C to copy. Then open a
new message and use Ctrl-V to paste the copy into.

Does that work?

Nope, that didn't work.
Is this problem and IE or Outlook problem?

Well, those two applications are rather intermingled, so if it's either it's
very possibly both. I'm not a whiz in this particular area, but I *think*
the problem involves OLE, or Object Linking and Embedding. If this is the
*only* place you are encountering Copy/Paste problems, then I'd run IE
Repair to see if that fixes it. Use the Start\Run box to launch MSINFO32. IE
Repair is in the Tools menu.

But first, how much experimenting have you done to verify that this is the
only place a Copy/Paste problem exists?
