Not normally. If you have downloaded an ActiveX control, then it is possible.


An ActiveX control is one of those things that pops up in Internet Explorer saying "Do you want to install and run %26lt;some software%26gt;". If you have said yes to one of those, then it is possible that that (and only that) website can view your clipboard.
