Default Turning off auto-hyperlinks in Word 2003

Failure to save settings of this kind often reflects a Registry glitch, so
you might see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/MissingMenusEtc.htm for instructions on
editing the Registry. But just as often the problem is caused by a poorly
written add-in.

I do not want Word to auto-format web addresses as hyperlinks because most
of
my Word documents are to be printed for mailing or faxing, therefore I
don't
want every URL printed in blue and underlined. When I turn off this
feature
in Tools/AutoCorrect Options, it gets turned back on every time I start a
new
document or open an existing one. I've even tried editing the normal.dot
template, but the feature is still turned on in every new or existing
document I open. How can I turn off this annoying feature for every
document
by default and have it stick???
Thanks for your help.
