Come back here to the post editor and paste into this post and I get

Are you using the noScript addon?

Then, in about:config :
Code:
noscript.allowClipboard = true

I do not use the noScirpt asson. Please explain further.
 
No, no further explanation, sorry. I just had the same problem, out of the blue.
Went into about:config, typed "clip" in the search-bar and flipped the most likely setting (mentioned above).
Problem solved. That was al the time I spent on it.
