XP was the last not to bloated version IMO.
Assume you do not have the issue with new blank document?
Found this with Google:
"That will happen as long as the document contains tracked changes. It's
basically there to protect you--to prevent you from thinking you can send
the document to someone without their being able to see the tracked changes.
The current behavior is based on an earlier Word version (pre-Word 2003, I
think) in which the on/off display of tracked changes was remembered per
document, and people were sending clients changes (sometimes containing
embarrassing comments) without being aware.
So... to keep them from reappearing each time, you'll need to accept or
reject the changes, then turn tracking off.

Not that I know of. When I open a document and it does this, if I go into
the Word Options, Trust Center, and Privacy Settings, the box for "make
hidden markup visible when opening or saving" is checked. So somehow Word
is ignoring its own options.

This is driving me nuts. At some point in the last few weeks, my copy of
Word 2007 has decided that every time I open a Word document, it will turn
on track changes and set the view to "final". This is incredibly
annoying,
since it means I have to go in and change those settings so I can actually
tell if people made changes or comments in a document.
I've tried deleting my normal word template and completly
uninstalling/reinstalling Office to no avail. Googling seems to turn out
a
lot of stuff about track changes but nothing with regard to this issue.
Any suggestions on how I can fix this before I tear my hair out?
Do you have a roaming profile that could be overwriting the changes you're
making to the normal.dot?
