Where is the problem? When I mark some text in IE, press C-c, then click into
Emacs and press C-y, I get the text there.

However, it does *not* work if you want to replace a selection marked
with the mouse.

I. e. if you mark some text in IE, press C-c, then mark some text in
Emacs, you won't be able to paste the IE text over it since Emacs
already put the new text into the system clipboard.
