Default Word 2007 Disabling Track Changes Hover Balloons

When editing docs with track changes whenever the cursor hovers on changed
text there is a very annoying balloon that pops up and obscures large areas.
In Word 2003 there was an easy option to turn them off; a check box named
ScreenTips.

In Word 2007 I have tried: Word Options/ScreenTip style: Don't show
ScreenTips and the changed text balloons persist. They seem to not be
ScreenTips anymore as other pop ups are gone but the changed text ones
persist. I searched many forums and MS found several tips that don't work.
Changing the view to Final will stop them but it also means I can't see the
changes. This seems broken to me.

Does anyone know how to stop these blasted pop ups in Word 2007?

Happy Trails

As far as I know, you cannot hide the pop-ups you are referring to in Word
2007. :-(
