A "bold" problem (3 posts)

    I have recently been experiencing this weird problem on my website, http://www.utrikesperspektiv.se. The thing is, all of the text on the front page has for some reason been converted to bold text. And I mean <i>all</i> the text, sidebar, post, footer, everything. If you click to see a post in its entirety, the problem disappears (http://www.utrikesperspektiv.se/2008/10/08/stat-och-samhalle/fighting-fire-with-fire-the-sri-lankan-conflict/). What is even more disturbing is that no changes to the design files -- style.css, index.php and the like -- have been made. The only thing I did was to edit a post (where I, inter alia, added some "bold" formatting); the problem seems to have appeared after that.

    Any ideas?

    You have the following appearing in your source code:

    This indicates that you've copied & pasted from MS Word - don't do this. If you need to copy & paste get the text into Notepad (a plain text editor) first.

    WP 2.5.1 has a function to paste directly from word, which I have been using (can't say the same about my contributors, though). Regardless, my question is -- how do I get rid of this? Do you suggest I repost the incorrectly posted data?

    Thx!
