Description Michael Nunneley 2011-04-26 11:48:22 UTC
I am using Writer and I find that when I type the work "sick" followed by a "." or a"," then the space bar, the word sick and following becomes underlined and I cannot turn it off. I repeated this several times.

I am using windows 7 home premium 64-bit with 5gb Ram, Nvidia 9400GT on an HP Pavilion.
Comment 1 vitriol 2011-04-26 12:09:24 UTC
I confirm this behavior. Is wrongly detected as hyperlink.
Comment 2 vitriol 2011-04-26 12:10:30 UTC
Regression. It works fine on 3.3.2
Comment 3 Zack 2011-04-27 14:55:12 UTC
Confirmed on Windows 7.
Comment 4 Zack 2011-04-27 15:20:35 UTC
Type "A slot machine" and it does it as well. Adding it as an annoying bug for the 3.4 release because this is an unacceptable bug to have in a release.

Comment 6 Petr Mladek 2011-04-28 03:34:23 UTC
I see it on Linux as well. It is quite annoying.

Cedric, would you have time to look at it?
Comment 7 DV 2011-04-29 05:11:16 UTC
Still presente in 3.4 Beta 3. 

Just type repeatedly "seal" to reproduce.

Modified Status due to facts
Modified OS due to Comment 6

"Bug 36640 - Involuntary conversion of word to hyperlink" contains lots of examples
Comment 9 Florian Heckl 2011-04-30 13:16:19 UTC
I can add that it happened for me also with Beta 2 already on Mac OS X (x86, not -64).
Comment 10 Duncan Lithgow 2011-05-03 01:57:09 UTC
Same behaviour on Win 7 / 64bit with LO3.4 beat3 when I type

skal 

followed by a space (it's a Danish word). It becomes an smb:/// link

I have changed the wrong and misdirecting "Incorrect words" in the summary to "Some words".
That bug doesn't depend on AutoSpellcheck (ASP) or any language. Words with language attribute "None" or with deactivated ASP are also affected.

Still not fixed in LibO 3.4 beta 4

Of course not, here is no comment concerning a fix and / or integration!

Comment 15 Claude 2011-05-13 20:49:00 UTC
Confirmed in 3.4.beta 5 writing in spanish at least two words
sido
sean 
as soon as the space after the two words is entered, an hyperlink format is associated:
smb:///  for the first combination of letters
slot: for the second.
It doesn´t happen if the words are at the beginning of the line.

Just my two cents....

> it also links german sind

Apparently, it simply doesn't matter what the language is. As I had indicated in duplicated bug 36640, several random combinations of "s" + "i" or "e" trigger the conversion of the word into a hyperlink. 

Examples: "seen", "seem", "seam", "sick", "sion", "sean", "seon", "seol", "siam", "seal","sial".  

Because it happens in several languages, with both existing and non-existing words it doesn't seem to be related with spellcheck or AutoCorrect.
Comment 19 k-j 2011-05-19 02:56:10 UTC
It is the same in RC1 (WIN XP 32bit SP3 German).

It is a nogo-version for German if the word "sind" (first and third person singular of the word "to be") will be hypermarked every time.

No normal user can kandle and accept such a behaviour.
Comment 20 Christian Lohmaier 2011-05-19 04:49:45 UTC
deserves blocker severity - you cannot tell uses to constantly hit <ctrl>+z/undo when the wrong hyperlink-detection happens - also LO seems to freeze (100%CPU) or crash because of this (crash/freete not 100% reproducible, but by just stupididly type the same word over and over again, if it is turned into hyperlink, open a new paragraph, repeat, at some point it will crash instead of turning to hyperlink)
Comment 21 Cédric Bosdonnat 2011-05-19 08:14:52 UTC
Fixed in 3-4 branch. Still waiting for 2 reviews before pushing in 3-4-0 branch.

Confirm fix on WinXp. Many thanks to the developers!
Comment 25 NX 2011-05-25 05:18:40 UTC
Also German Windows-Version works. Problem fixed. Expression "sind" won't be converted to hyperlinks anymore. Thanks to all involved!

I think that is RC1. Please, try RC2.

Whoops, you are correct!  Sorry to waste your time.
