Having the same problem. I have an interview to post and the results look dreadful. The entire text body is blue in color and one long "link."
Can anyone suggest anything?

I have had this happen once before, and I cannot remember the fix. I know I have corrected it by editing the post – and I have corrected other people’s. hyper-linked text.
Incidentally Angelo, I often use Word to write forum posts because the reply text-box fails big-time for me if I type too fast and will open random menus and pages as if I’ve hit Explorer hot-keys instead of the keys I actually hit. I’ve lost so many posts that way I’ve given up typing long replies without using word first. It also has the advantage of spell-checking as I type, which is a bonus.

You must remember the fix, Dean, you're our only hope right now.

Yes... I'll try and remember, but I've only recently learnt how to type M@X without it automatically becoming a hyperlink...

Looks like OpenOffice gives you the same problem.

Not exactly. It doesn't hyperlink the text.

Sorry, I meant the annoying header. But yes, at least it doesn't create a hyperlink.

I think the docx format will always do this- the x stands for XML which is a hypertext format. Try Save as (the save option in the menu) 97 -2003 format so it is just the old style doc format.

With windows try using Notepad instead.

^ Suggested before, but I hate monotonous formats (only one font, one color), so Notepad is out of the question.

The purpose of the "Paste From Word" icon  is to strip out all the redundant embedded garbage code that Word documents contain, garbage code that messes with the embedded dhtml formatting scripts of the PA pages.

^ The problem I have is I cannot replicate the error, even using your Word file.
One thing to try is hitting Backspace once immediately after the paste to see if it disables the hyper-link.

Stop being lazy and just retype everything. Like I have had to do many times. 
Thank God reviews don't work this way...
