It is true, text you last copied for pasting (copy & paste) can be stolen when you visit web sites using a combination of JavaScript and ASP (or PHP, or CGI) to write your possible sensitive data to a database on another server. Hopefully you haven't copied a credit card number recently before surfing!

Fortunately, the fix for this is also quite simple:
1. In Internet Explorer, go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Security
2. Click on Custom Level (preview image).
3. In the security settings, click to Disable the “Allow Paste Operations via Script.” That will keep your clipboard contents private (screen capture preview).
Note: If you are using Firfox browser then it will not work and if you using IE 7 then it will prompt you to Allow execution of javascript.
