Turn off the Autocorrect -->   Format>Autocorrect  and uncheck the box 
for "while typing".  That fixes a lot of formatting issues I have seen 
crop up in my typing.  This may help with yours.  Also, you might want 
to look into the "Autocorrect options" in that menu as well.  There is 
an URL option there.
