Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.2) Gecko/20060308 Firefox/1.5.0.2

Without me doing anything, Firefox copy and paste will not work, I found a fix by renaming the firefox executable to anything but firefox and copy and paste then works fine, currently have the firefox executable renamed to fire and all works fine, if I restore the original firefox name, copy and paste will not work 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Leave Firefox.exe as is, copy and paster won't work
2.Rename Firefox.exe to anything but Firefox, copy and paster works fine again
3.Rename it back to Firefox.exe, copy and paste is broken again

I have not added any extension or themes before this problem happened

Copy and paste was working with all the themes and extensions which I had
