Open the Tools AutoCorrect Options dialog. Look in the list for an
entry that has x on the left and xury on the right. If it's there,
select it and click the Delete button.

Most likely you have an AutoCorrect entry which is causing the replacement
to occur.

The next time it happens move your pointer to the x, then click the SmartTag
to open a menu from which you can fix the problem.

Or, if the SmartTags are turned off, go to ToolsAutoCorrect Options (menu
may read a little different - I'm going from memory here)
