How do I keep what appears to be embedded code from appearing in my posts?

After I publish my posts, up to two dozen lines of what appears to be embedded code appear at the top of my posts.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

If you are copying and pasting from WORD read what follows.

Microsoft Word is a word processing program that’s not compliant with web standards. The result of copy and pasting from Microsoft Word into the Tiny MCE editor in WordPress blogs can be unexpected, and contain a lot of formatting code that’s not compliant unless you know how to use the built-in features in the Visual editor for using Word cleanly. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#pasting-text
Note you need to click the kitchen sink icon #15 at the end of Row 1 to have Row 2 appear. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-1
Go here and enable this > Settings > Writing
Formatting
_ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically
“save changes”I recommend using Windows Live Writer for posting to your blog > http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/windows-live-writer/

If you are not copying and pasting then note what follows. If what you are seeing whenever you save or update a post or page is an automatically added code/script block at the end of posts and pages that you can’t delete then see here: Malware Targets Macs and Windows PCs http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/10/02/malware-targets-macs-and-windows-pcs/

Thank you timethief.
Yes, I’m copying and pasting. This problem is new, however–I haven’t had it occur until about 1-2 weeks ago.
OK, I’ll try what you suggest. Thanks again! Sincerely, Andy
