Default Unwanted styles being added

Several users are working on a document I created using styles I created.
When I get the file back, several styles are being added. The users are not
creating the new styles. How does this happen and how can we prevent it?
I am using Word 2003 some users are using 2000 and 2002.

Thanks for any help you can give.

If you're referring to things like "Normal+Bold", they aren't really
styles. Turn off the "Keep track of formatting" option and they'll go
away.

Are these styles or just formatting? If you don't have "Keep track of
formatting" checked on the Edit tab of Tools | Options, you won't see the
latter.
