Try a new profile, and perhaps disabling extensions to debug this issue.
If this fixes it - more investigation can be done.

Sounds like you have Yahoo! toolbar, which seems to be causing some issues with Right click. Can you highlight something, press Ctrl+C, then try to past somewhere using Ctrl+V? Bug 505067 is on the yahoo issue.

If you have the Yahoo Toolbar please disable it and try again. That would be needed to verify that this extension is causing this problem.
