Copy and Paste using Mouse in VM Description Crashes VirtualBox GUI

[Ramsay]

Detailed Description 1) Start Virtual Box 2) Click on the Descriptions Tab of a Powered Off VM. 3) Click on the Edit Button 4) This opens the Settings window at the Description tab. 5) Select some text and copy it using the right click mouse menu. 6) Right click as if you were to past using the mouse again or use Ctrl+V. 6) The mouse icon changes to Busy and the Window Title changes to Settings (Not Responding). 7)Closing the Settings Window generates the Windows 7 message "VirtualBox GUI is not responding" 8)Choosing to Close the program both the Settings and VirtualBox GUI Windows close. 9) Starting VirtualBox again the status of the VM is changed to Aborted.

NOTE: Copy and Past using the keyboard (ie Shift+ Right Arrow, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V) is ok and if you copy with the keyboard you can past with the mouse without issue. It only fails when you copy with the mouse and then try to past the contents of the clipboard.

This Windows 7 log is from 3.0.12 (due to a bridge networking issue in 3.1.2) but 3.1.2 exhibits the same behaviour.
