I cannot duplicate the problem (but only partially). I experienced extra comment lines inserted only when there was no space between the initial comment line and the uncommented line, i.e.: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- # Then I comment this line out But when I keep writing a sufficiently long line such that # the cursor moves to the next line, a "#" character creeps in! # and will keep appearing for the remainder of the document. --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- I did not experience extra comment lines in lines further down the text. I'm running the latest git org-mode and a recent development emacs -- GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.16.2) of 2009-07-01 -- on archlinux. > Samuel, > > Thanks for replying.

I'm not sure whether the fix addresses the problem of unwanted comment lines father down in the text (which I could not replicate).
