highlighted text won't clear

[sheldorafk 0]

I have a couple words that are highlighted, and I can't get them to clear.  If I was to manually highlight a word, it's a different shade of yellow.  So not sure where this highlight feature came from, even when I do a search it looks different.  Has anybody come across this before?  

Here's what I'm talking about. 

Cheers,

On my Mac, to resolve formatting problems like this I usually use  Simplify Formatting and Plain Text under the Format menu.  Sometimes the underlying html/enml code gets messed up and even if I wanted to I can't be bothered with sorting it out.

I enabled simplify formatting, and that did the trick.  I'm on a Mac as well.

Thank you very much DTLow!!  I was looking all over the place, and was going mad trying to figure it out.  Much appreciated mate!!
