Well..the only thing I know of that puts things in brackets are bookmarks.
Do you have bookmarks there? If you go back to Tools>Options and click on
the View tab, is bookmarks checked? If so, uncheck that and see if the
brackets go away.
Otherwise I don't know...I saw this in the Word newsgroups and I think it
sounds like what you are seeing...but I don't see a solution anywhere...is
this close to what you are talking about?

to see if that fixes it.
Nope...hitting alt + F9 displays the words "formcheckbox" inside of French
brackets.
