The problem with River!Daniel, or mutant!Daniel, or whoever he is, is that although I have created him, I'm not exactly sure what to do with him.

Thoughts?

Go on and just...

I have been provoked into re-rec-ing Go on and just... by that every-amazing crack whore, rosemending.

The saga of my search to find this story after losing is is located here. It was a long search. The story is fascinating. Really.

The story is EW/Justin Timberlake, and one of the best EW/OB stories out there. A *must*.

So there.

Take that.

Crossposting this to both my journals.

I'm running Windows XP Home. I have stinky Microsoft Word 2003. (Microsoft got it right with Word 2000. They've been screwing up their own software for the past 6 years.)

I use both AOL and Explorer for web browsing.

Here's the problem.

If I am looking at a web page, say one of my journal entries, and I want to grab some text and paste it over to Word, I highlight the text, Ctrl C, flip over to Word, Ctrl V, and Word totally hangs. It's pathetic.

I didn't have this problem on my old computer and I don't have this problem at work. At work, I have a slight delay sometimes, and there's a tendancy for Word to put in a bunch of those little circles instead of spaces and soft returns instead of hard returns, but the paste essentially works.

At home, Word just dies.

Any thoughts about what is causing this and how to fix it? I thought it might be AOL's fault, as my usual MO is to blame AOL for everything because it sucks so, so bad, but this seems to be a Word problem, as it happens with Explorer, too.
