I remember some time back having this problem; I went to Word Preferences and switched off that automatic conversion -- and the problem stopped. Meantime I bought a new computer (Macbook Pro), and it never occurred to me that of course it comes with the automatic conversion by default. "This sentence is being typed in "Word" after turning off the automatic conversion of straight quotes to "smart quotes". I'll now copy and paste this into the aol window, send. I'm betting the BBs are gone."
