Hi kraakenn,

That's precisely what that setting is for. I am curious, though, as to how the problem might have propagated from one PC to the next since that setting does not travel with the document or, AFAIK, specific PCs on multi-user systems. For multiple users to be progressively affected, the implication is that the setting was changed by someone with access to their accounts.
