I have seen the results of this issue but have been unable to reproduce it until now. When I copy and paste from an the body of an email in MS Outlook (across a Remote Desktop Connection), some extra code is pasted into the WWF post editor. Below is an example.

I tried to click on the paste button on the WWF RT Editor, but it said that access to the clipboard was denied.

I am using Firefox (latest full release) on Windows XP (latest patches)

Example follows:

< ="-" ="text/; =utf-8">< name="ProgId" ="Word.">< name="Generator" ="Microsoft Word 12">< name="Originator" ="Microsoft Word 12">

PS: When I post the snippet into the RTE, the extra code is not displayed.

Is there a way to post plain text instead of having to go through a third-party route (like pasting to Notepad, copying, and then pasting into the RTE)?
