    I suspect that Hans's diagnosis is correct. If you are seeing something that refuses to hide when you turn off the display of bookmarks, perhaps you can upload a screen shot so that we can have a closer look.

    They probably indicate bookmarks. If you don't want to see the brackets:

    • Select File > Options.
    • Select Advanced.
    • Scroll down to the 'Show document content' section.
    • Clear the 'Show bookmarks' check box.
    • Click OK.
