HHCTRL.OCX on my box says it's version 5.02.3750.0 too.  God only knows
whether that's the relevant piece, though.  Other pieces here include

    ITSS.DLL     5.02.3644.0
    ITIRCL.DLL   5.02.3644.0
    HHA.DLL      4.74.8702.0

Ctrl+F works for me <wink>.  Maybe it's your browser that's out-of-date, or
you use something other than IE?  I'm using IE 6.0.2800.1106IS, with all
current service packs.

If you select a bunch of text and right-click, do you get a context menu
with a Copy choice?  I do; if you do, that might be a good-enough
workaround.

I can only access Win98SE at the moment.  I'm 99% sure I had no problems on
Win2K either, but can't swear to that 100% before Tuesday.
