Here's an EASY FIX for another Windows security issue, that you probably didn't know existed until now. (Man, are we tired of seeing these!) This test definitely concerned me when I realize how often I change some of my passwords using copy/paste functions.
When you copy text - it's saved in your windows clipboard. So, the last thing you copy (including passwords and credit card numbers) is up for grabs at the first website loaded with javascript that is setup to nab it.
Safeguard your system by changing a few Internet Options. First, visit WorldStart.com and take this test. Follow the instructions to fix this issue, then retake the test to make sure your clipboard can't be stolen.
