Default Is it possible for Word to change styles for a document?

Hello,

This is going to sound like a really dumb question, but I have to ask. I
have a user who was working on a previously saved document. The document was
created using the standard "Normal" style. However, when she reopened the
document, placed her insertion point at the end of the last paragraph and hit
enter, her spacing was off. When I looked at it, I realized that most of her
document was created with the Normal style, but the last paragraph was
formatted with the "Normal (Web)" style. (So, of course, the next paragraph
picked up the "Normal (Web)" style, too.) She doesn't know anything about
styles, has never used them, so I know she did not physically change the
style herself. There is no shortcut key associated with the style. She said
that the original document was typed from scratch, nothing copied and pasted
into it. She just typed and hit enter, as usual. So here is the question:

Is it possible for Word to change styles on you? Hey! Stop rolling your
eyes! I had to ask!

We are using Word 2007, but the document is saved at 97-2003.

Thanks for any suggestions!
