Using Open Office 3.1.1, I do see the issue with not being able to paste text from Firefox to an open office document. I tried by just trying to cut and paste some bugzilla text. But when I try to use IE, it doesn't work either - Open Office freezes.

I just tried Firefox 3.6 Beta 5 on Windows 7, and the copy paste operation does work for me, so this seems to be a regression of some sort.

i think this is a dupe of Bug 537414 which was fixed on
[Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9.3a1pre) Gecko/20100111
SeaMonkey/2.1a1pre] (nightly) (W2Ksp4)

can anyone confirm that?
