Microsoft Word: Still buggy after all these years

You would think that, after 26 years and a dozen different versions, Microsoft would have polished Word to a fine, steel edge. They have not. A colleague just installed Word 2007. Today is the second day I have used it. I created a new page. I produced a horizontal rule at the top of the page. Now every time I paste to the page, I get a new rule that goes along with the paste. I do not want this to happen.

Curse Bill Gates. It won't fix Word or Windows (any version), but you'll feel better. That's what I do.
