Shocking NEWS about CTRL+C and Copy (a must read)

Here is some useful information for all.
Ctrl+C may be the most important work we do everyday. But it's not a
very safe thing to do. Read on to know why. What happens when you
press Ctrl+C while you are Online... We do copy various data by Ctrl +
C for pasting elsewhere.

This copied data is stored in clipboard and is accessible from the net
by a combination of Javascripts and ASP.

Just try this:
1) Copy any text by Ctrl + C
2) Click the Link: You must login or register to view this content.
3) You will see the text you copied was accessed by this web page.
Do not keep sensitive data (like passwords, credit card numbers, PIN
etc.) in the clipboard while surfing the web. It is extremely easy to
extract the text stored in the clipboard to steal your sensitive
information.

What to do?????????

Don’t be Scared about this..
To avoid Clipboard Hack Problem, do the following:
Go to internet options->security
Press custom level
In the security settings, select disable under Allow paste operations via script.
Now the contents of your clipboard are safe.

And don't wear it out.
I think FireFox blocks sites from accessing your clipboard by default.
Actually I think every web browser besides IE does =D
