Also, in IE, it looks like you can get around it by clicking the mouse at the start of the text you want to copy, then holding down SHIFT and clicking at the end.
That's what I usually do and that's not working for me either. I can ctrl+A and copy into a MS word file and then copy the text, but that's a big pain in the butt when I'm just trying to quote something in the comments.
Ah, well. Maybe it will go away. Maybe it's finally time for me to switch to Firefox.
Yeah, I noticed that, too. Annoying. If I click and drag to select -- nada. I can select text by the click one - word, click two - sentence, click three - paragraph method, but that's not very precise.
