Ok, this one I've seen twice in the past week, and it goes like this.
FC9 Gnome is my OS
I have a browser open, and want to send the URL to a co-worker. I highlight the URL in the address bar, right click and copy.
I go into evolution, create a new email, and in the body I hit CTRL+V or right click and PASTE, doesn't matter. but what is pasted is NOT the URL I copied, but some other URL that appears to be a fake site telling people they have a virus and spyware.
I opened GEDIT, and pasted there, same URL. I opened a text document I had, selected some text from it, Copied the text, went to the bottom and pasted, same stupid URL.
Whatever I did I could not get this URL out of my clipboard. I ended up rebooting and that cleared it up, but it has happened twice in a little over a week. And the URL that it's pasting, I've never gone there.
The URL I copied from has been different sites, one was Newegg (today's) and last week it was from slashdot or DIGG, I cannot remember.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?
