copy text without black background

I tried copy & paste of your post into MS Word and it worked fine for me (black text on white background). Evidently, Word is smart enough to switch the color around.

Try an intermediate step of pasting into Notepad first (or some other text-only software). This will strip out any HTML information (color, fonts, little icons, whatever). Then copy & paste from Notepad to where ever you'd like.
