I'd suspect something on the local machine with an additional handle on the capture.
As an example, the new version of SnagIt will interecpt all of my captures.
As that handle is created in IE8 it is at the same time using it for the Accelerator.
See how that split second can be problematic?

I've noted that ie8 crashes somtimes/often when doing the following:

Selecting text.
Using ctrl+c on selected text.

Doesn't crash for me. When I hit CTRL-C the first four times it didn't copy the text either though. :)

Works for me. (Edit: I mean it doesn't crash) Although, I think that the Accelerators are a bit buggy. I have the habit of sitting there while I'm reading something and *click**click click**click click click* selecting and deselecting text. Sometimes that causes a crash. I'm only guessing, but it just seems like it could be coming from the whatever is responsible for showing the button.
