The forum software is updated periodically and the presentation of heavily formatted messages may have been altered by software changes at some point in the past. Have a look at how many [font tags are involved in your posts !! Far too many.
I find that this type of effect mainly occurs when I grab 'data' from other web sites to paste into posts - so these days I add in an extra step - paste the data from the source web page into an empty Wordpad document (and all of the hidden HTML is gone) then copy and paste from the Wordpad screen into the forum post. Do any minor formatting. All done.
Note that it doesn't work once pasted into the forum post, must be done beforehand. Then the only alternative is to paste it into a html-tags-stripping package then back into the forum post....
