They are! I don't know why Word has them on by default, of all things. Grr.

I also recommend Scrivener for Mac users; it has a menu option to fix all the smart quotes in a document in addition to being able to switch it off in word-processing preferences. (And a menu option that will asterisk your *italics*, which is useful for those fandoms that still use pure plaintext for mailing lists and archiving.)
