Can NOT paste anything using  "Freeform Text" from a file on my computer because I get an error regarding my hard drive; the files were removed because of security reasons.  Am I the only one unable to paste from a file?  Thanks.

Dr. Trocar,


This is not entirely accurate.


The message tells you that the files have been removed because they reference files on the users hard drive.  This is not a mistake.  Anytime your content has URL(s) that being with file:/// it is a reference to the user's hard drive.  Stuff like that is what gets people's sites on security lists.


You can still submit your content with the unsafe URL(s) removed.


I'm sorry but this is not something that we can bend on - URL(s) that attempt to reference a use'rs hard drive cannot be allowed to be posted.

Again, you can paste from a file on your computer and you can resubmit your content after the system has scrubbed the unsafe URL(s) from it and informed you of the change.


What you cannot do is submit the content with the unsafe URL(s).
