Your Clipboard Test Results

If the info you copied appeared above, then you're probably feeling a little anxious right about now. I mean, just imagine if that info had been a password, credit card number, or bank account info! I could have just as easily put the info on your clipboard into a database as shown it to you. Don't worry, I didn't - really, I didn't!

Want to know how to disable this "feature"? It's easy as fallin' off a digital log:

1. Open Internet Explorer and click the Tools menu, Internet Options.

2. Click the Security tab, then press the "Custom Level" button.

3. OK, grab your shovel, it's time to do some digging. Under the "Scripting" section, hunt for an entry called "Allow paste operations via script". Set to disable (or at lest prompt).

4. Hit OK until you're back to Explorer.

5. That's it. Now copy some text to your clipboard and refresh this page. With any luck, you should find that your clipboard is no longer accessible. Cool huh?
