I'm a student using a service that provides practice questions for standardized tests. The service requires that I access the questions by downloading and running a Java application.

If I try to copy anything from any window of my computer (including applications unrelated to the question bank) while the application is running, the copied item is replaced with an obnoxious message asking me to not pirate their copyrighted material.

I find this obnoxious, and I also really don't like the idea that any application can slurp up any and all potentially sensitive information that I happen to copy while it's running.

Is there are a way to limit the privileges of this application to stop it from doing this?

Thank you!
