So, are you trying to say this is a Windows problem?
It seems to me that at the end of your article there is a link named "A Windows bug (Bug 133439) which causes the clipboard to randomly stop working was fixed in Firefox 1.5.0.4 on May 31".
Does this mean that bug returned back with Firefox 2.0?

Duping. If you can reproduce in 2.0.0.1pre builds or later, please reopen. Also, this could be provoked by one of the extensions you're using.
