Yes. The problem is in Word itself. It adds so much junk into what looks like a normal file there's a whole industry of writing code strippers for word. Here's an example:

Because of this, I don't know why anyone would use Word for serious writing, but people have their habits. I don't run IE or Firefox, so I can't make a recommendation, and can only offer a search string suggestion. Try googling firefox microsoft word code stripper paste, or some variation on that theme. I'm pretty sure you'll find something.

Good luck!

Thanks,

Bill
