Eskie and Fool Zero, I really appreciate your help with this. I am feeling a little frustrated though as I don't know how else to explain that I have changed absolutely nothing except browsers and the Firefox doesn't paste an image. (It is probably copying but when I click paste, insert, CTRL V, whichever ........ nothing happens.) I am doing exactly as I used to with internet explorer.

1. Right click on image
2. Select copy image (explorer says copy, not copy image)
3. CTRL-V in message reply box

and voila - the image should be there. This always worked with explorer but nothing happens in firefox. Even in photobucket, where one pastes the code [IMG] etc etc. - that doesn't paste either.

Any text that I copy and paste within the message reply box, pastes just fine.

If I copy image location - that pastes too - but it isn't the image, so what's the use.

Am I getting clearer?

At the end of the day, I can't see that there is anything wrong with my computer. It still works in explorer, just not firefox. No other changes were made.
