    Shocking fact About Ctrl+c (the 'copy' Cmd)

    Hey frnds take care of this..........
    Please be very careful when u press Ctrl + C

    Ctrl+C we use it every day . But it'snot a verysafe thing to do. why???
    What happens when you press Ctrl+C while you are Online...
    We do copy various data by Ctrl + C for copying & pasting elsewhere.
    This copied data is stored in clipboard and isaccessible from the net by a combination of Javascripts and ASP, if u dont believe me Just try this
    Step:1) Copy any text by Ctrl + C.

    Step: 2) Click the Link: Retrieve Clipboard Text To A Web Page With Javascript - Make Sure You Do Not Allow Someone To Gather This Information, It Is An Exploit In Many Eyes
    Step: 3) You will see the text you copied was accessed bythis webpage.
    So Do not keep sensitive data (like passwords, creditcard numbers,PIN etc.) in the clipboard while surfing the web. It isextremely easy toextractthe text stored in the clipboard to steal yoursensitiveinformation.
    You can stop hacking of clipboard content by doing: Go to internet options of explorer -_ tools menu ->Internetoption -> Security Custom levelIn settings - Select disable under allow pastoperations viascript.
    I HOPE THIS WILL BE HELP FUL FOR YOU

    Nice sharing but it is simply that clipboard can be shared if you have enabled in your browser settings. Its not a bug or security issue.
