PureText - Paste only the text, and nothing but the text

I finally got fed up with the Windows clipboard's penchant for pasting rich-formatted/HTML text instead of JUST THE TEXT! In fact, I have never had a use for the 'feature', I always paste the rich formatted text into notepad, then Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C, and then open the destination program and Ctrl-V. This is a ridiculous amount of effort just to paste TEXT ONLY.

Enter PureText - http://www.stevemiller.net/puretext/

Problem solved!
