bboyminn:

I think in the past it has been an issue of Character Encoding
which can be set by going to the View menu of your browser. 

Normally Character Encoding is set to some variation of 'Western'
however, sometime people have there computers set to 'Unicode'. 

In your case however, it looks like ellipsis have been converted
from three consecutive dots (periods ...) to the actual single
character ellipsis. 

As suggested by others, this is a setting you can control in
Word. I have my ellipsis conversion shut off, and also, as
suggested, have my auto left/right quotation (single and
double) shut off.
