expecially fustrationg for my senior thesis which is 50 pages long. How can i

They are not internet codes but are Word formatting marks (along with marks
for spaces, tabs, etc.) and have been there, unseen, all along. You've just
turned them on somehow. They don't print and can sometimes be useful to see.
Look for the pilcrow (backwards cap P) in one of the toolbars (or the0 /home
ribbon in W2007) and click it—once, and they are off; again, and they're back.
