I tried (a few seconds ago) it on:

Windows 95 OSR 2.0 with Netscape Communicator 4.04. All works OK. I just 
started my editor, selected new file, typed "pppp", selected it, then copy to 
W. clip. and finally tried to paste it in the "Go to:" input line of 
Communicator. All ok.

So I guess is something in your W95 or Netscape.

Greetings, SET

P.S. I tried it with RHIDE 1.4 too.
