VPC disables Clipboard?

I find that if I'm running a VM with VPC 2007 SP1 it seems to disable the
clipboard on the host. I can't copy , and some apps return an error if I
try. Closing the VM restores the clipboard.

Is this a known problem? If so, any workarounds?

Thanks,
Dean

I've certainly seen that, both with VPC and MSTSC. I think the hooks involved
aren't being set/released properly, and as you've found the only answer is to
restart the session. I'm not sure MSFT acknowledges it as a problem, but it surely
is.
