Stop helping me, Microsoft !!!

Is there anyway to turn off Microsoft's "help" in Visual Studio. Specifically, I'm referring to the following issues:
- The editor's penchant to automatically insert closing tags when you've typed an opening tag in an HTML file.
- The editor's automatically formatting (with HTML) any text that is copied and pasted from another application into a source file.

First issue: Go to Tools->Options then click Text Editor, then click HTML/XML, then click HTML specific and uncheck the Close Tag check box. You might want to do the same for XML specific if you're editing config files. Second issue (not tested, but I have a hunch that it'll work): Go to Tools->Options then click Text Editor, then click HTML/XML, then click Format. Take a look at the Apply Automatic Formatting section. Andy Gaskell, MCSD MCDBA
