File Download: "copy link location" opens GetRight download manager on winNT but
not win98 - should work for all win's.

At my office (winNT) it works and i can download files with GetRight. At home
(win98) it doesn't work. 

Both getright installs are configured the same, so it should work. If there is
some setting in mozilla i am overlooking, please tell me what it is and mark
this as wontfix. Otherwise, this bug should be fixed since download managers are
highly useful and popular.

is this mozilla's fault? should it not be the getright software that monitors
the clipboard?

Comment 2

[Peter Lairo]

Getright does monitor the clipboard. It seems that mozilla is not copying the
link to the clipboard properly in win98.

PS. Please don't remove the keyword for the *requested* completion milestone.
The "Target Milestone" is where the developers place the *actual* milestone.

Comment 5

[Peter Lairo]

Yes, it is a win98 bug. Sorry, i entered the bug at work (winNT), and the OS
field was autofilled.
