Copy and paste of images still broken?

I use Firefox 14 and Windows XP, and I can't copy and paste images from the web into, say, a Word document. I used to do this all the time for knitting patterns, and it's very frustrating to have lost this function. I see from the knowledge database that this problem existed since version 11 or 12. Is there a solution somewhere?

Or, can someone help me download an earlier version? All I can find are release notes.

Thank you.

Hello, maybe if you install the newest version of Firefox will fix this problem, here is the link for Firefox 15 http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all.html Also if you think that an earlier version will work for you you can find them here but i dont recommend it. http://www.oldapps.com/firefox.php

Thanks for the help. I don't think Firefox has fixed the problem in version 15 -- I looked at the notes. They don't seem to acknowledge the problem at all. So I may have to switch to another browser. But I will try going back in time first -- thanks for the link.
