--- Comment #5 from Lewis Balentine <lewis at keywild.com> ---
Controlled as an AutoCorrect option:  'URL Recognition' enabled by default.

Well I looked that up and it appears to be by individual document.

================
Turn off URL Recognition: 
Load a document of the type for which you want to modify the URL recognition.
If you want to modify the URL recognition for text documents, open a text
document.
Choose Tools - AutoCorrect - AutoCorrect Options.
In the AutoCorrect dialog, select the Options tab.
If you unmark URL Recognition, words will no longer be automatically replaced
with hyperlinks.
In LibreOffice Writer there are two check boxes in front of URL Recognition.
The box in the first column is for later post-editing and the box in the second
column is for AutoCorrect as you type.
===============
That works but you have to do it for ever document.

The bigger problem is that there is NO WAY to remove a hyper-link one it has
been inserted. You can use Control-Z but when you exit the cell the Link is
restored (unless you have turned it off for the document). Maybe what I should
ask for is a simple way to REMOVE hyperLinks. Some reference indicate that
should be available in the right-click context menu ... but it does not appear
for min. It is also NOT an option in the Hyper-Link edit dialog.
