Default page break turns into real dashed line

I am using an older version of Microsoft Word, and have come across an
odd formating issue.

Normally, a page break will show up as a faint dashed line. But when
you print preview, the line goes away, and there is just a page break.
Very simple, and it makes sense.

On one of my page breaks there is a thick formated line that *does*
show up in print preview. The line is literally on top of the dashed
page break line. If I click on it, I can drag it, but I can't get rid
of it.

I don't know if this is some kind of auto-formating, or border or what,
but I would like to know how I can get rid of it without messing up the
rest of my document.
