Default How can I delete bold horizontal lines that I can't select?

I have encountered bold horizontal lines in a document that I didn't create.
I cannot select them for deletion or remove the pages on which they are
located; they just reappear on the page prior to the one I deleted. What can
I do? I'm using Word 2007 in Vista.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...RidOfLine.htm; pay attention
to the part about the lines moving up.
