The sidebar is mysteriously peppered with <strong> tags…

… but only when viewing all of the content from one particular category on a dynamically generated page.

There are 20+ categories, and this is the only one for which this happens.

To recap, when you click on the link the view all of the posts from this one particular category, the page that comes up has an entirely bold sidebar, which makes a lot of sense because <strong> tags have been inserted in between and around every other piece of code in the sidebar.

I checked the database entry for the category, I’ve even tried eliminating every instance of this tag from every plugin, theme file, etc. etc. No dice. All is bold.

Please help me.
