I just downloaded Firefox 3.5 (which automatically replaced my earlier Firefox. There are some improvements, but there is one change I cannot tolerate. I do a lot of bibliographical work. When I find an entry I do not have, I copy and paste into a work file (usually Word Mac 2004). On the old Firefox, this has been pasting as text. Now, all of a sudden, my clipboard lays down on of the formatting from the source (including embedded links). I find no way to correct this, from Firefox, from Word or from my OS. Is it possible to make "text" my default destination setup? I calculate that using the paste options clipboard appearing after every paste will take me nearly 3 times as long as what I had before. Hope computing is not returning to the elitist sport it used to be. Mac OS10.4.11 TBob Robert D.
