That's even worse than no prize at all!
|

The prize is the respect of your peers, and the honour of posting again!
I'd prefer cash, but ... 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Hah!
You also get:
* Enough rep points to sink a battleship!1
* Up to 10,000 rep points!2
* A free holiday!3
* A new car!4
1 - A digital battleship: ___________ there is mine, and as you can see, it has indeed been sunk.
2 - Average: zero.
3 - No-expenses-paid, no time off arranged with your employer, all transportation and accommodation costs are not included.
4 - This is in fact a lie.

this is most weird.
it's now the second time this has happened to me, but it happened from the other side now. the first time was 4 or 5 years ago where i copied some text to paste it somewhere and my manager did a copy and paste on his laptop, but he pasted my text. both of us windows 7 and on a work domain.
now, 5 minutes ago, the same thing happened to me again. i took a screenshot of some code in visual studio, pasted it in mspaint, dragged a block around a function and copied that to paste in an email. when i ctrl-v'd in the new email, it pasted a shortened youtube like to a "nissan 200sx" video (i have very little interest in watching anything other than food videos on youtube). this time, i'm on windows10 and not on the work domain (ain't nobody got time fo' that!). i also have no idea who this link came from and how it infiltrated my clipboard.
so far my leading theories are:
- crazy-ass windows
- is aliens
- barry allen ran in, looked for a youtube video, copied the link, emailed it off and forgot to copy my previous item before he left

This is seriously disturbing.

Teamviewer / Remote Desktop or similar software can have that effect.

We have a remote server where we work. It is so often... and so annoying... and even worst... not the only side effect.
Paste won't work (you close the Rem.Desk... it works), the "Alt Gr" won't work (you close the Rem.Desk... it works), Monitor flickering if someone plays with the resolution on server (you close the Rem.Desk... it works)...
Sad is... as we get used to it, we don't care anymore. And it might be a security / privacy breach (I have once pasted the content of an "eyes only" Email of one local worker where the server is into one document I was editing in my laptop)

The clipboard is something local. If there's something on your clipboard, then someone used your computer.

VNC and TeamViewer can interact with the clipboard (luckily). In fact you can copy text from your pc and paste it on the remoted one and viceversa, and I'm pretty sure that is managed as clipboard content (instead of emulated by sending keys).

Any local app has access to the clipboard, and you can access it even with VB6. I'd be guessing more in the direction of badly written malware than a "bug" in Windows where it accidentally puts the content on the clipboard of the active session of the logged in user on another machine.

Well I can confirm the other variation.
First day of new formated amd installed laptop (by corporation IT), issue was still there.
If it is malware... then it affects a lot of computers.
Besides... it is a malware that only is active while remote Desktop is active. You close the window (not even needed to log off) and everything works fine again

..and there you localized it to a local application. Might not be malicious, could just as well be a simple bug.
..but Windows itself? Little chance that the OS would be that confused

Personal experience, always the same. Happening sporadically depending on what we (team) are doing in the remote desktop

That was my point from the very beggining. You were the one speaking about malware

Have you been living in outer space the last couple of years? I would not be surprised if it get worst.

My point was that it would not be the OS. Perhaps we should note the point we want to make at the top of the post, for clarity :p

What, accidentally writing in the memory-space of another machine?

That does not mean that your PC took someone else's clipboard
