Default Turn off Track Changes

I have a macro assigned to Ctrl-Shift-R. Sometimes I miss and hit
Ctrl-Shift-E, which turns on the Track Changes feature. I can never
figure out how to turn it off.

I am running Office 2007, but this document is in compatibility mode.

I tried the obvious solutions:

1. Ctrl-Z (undo). No joy.

2. Ctrl-Shift-E hoping it might be a toggle. No joy.

3. I went to the Review ribbon and clicked on the Track Changes button
and unchecked everything. No joy. This does stop it from highlighting
further changes, but it does not remove the highlighting that is
already there.

How do I reverse the effect of hitting Ctrl-Shift-E?

Is there a way that I can either (a) completely disable tracking
forever or (b) kill that keyboard shortcut?
