Default Suddenly Typing in Red Underline!!!!

You have activated the option to track changes. Turn off that option and
accept all changes.
In Word to 2003 you can do that from the Review toolbar. In Word 2007 its
the review tab on the ribbon.

Typing in a new Word doc, all of a sudden my typing turns to red
underline--and won't allow me to change back to normal. I know I
accidentally brushed some key or other w/fingers of my right hand
(I'm a v. bad 2-finger typist) just before that happened.
Also--there are red dotted lines in my doc showing what I deleted,
notes of formatting. There's a box marked 'final showing markup'
visible up in the tool bar--I'm pretty sure it wasn't there before.
Obviously I've accidentally activated some feature or other. How do I
ghet back to normal? (Normal to me means just plain letters on the
screen in the size and color of my choice--and nothing else.)
