One thing to try is to copy a space and when you need it, paste it.

Wolfie, my curmudgeonly friend:
I normally do clean in CV, and in CV only. But this thing...I can't explain how incredibly BAD it was. I had to fix almost every line as a broken paragraph. I did as much as I could in regex (the dolt that did this--for thousands of dollars, mind you--even put images in-between portions of paragraphs, like in a print book, because he didn't understand what would happen), and then after hours of it, I switched to BV to do a quick visual scan, to find what hadn't been picked up in Regex. I did do the "easy" think and just hit the delete key plus a space. That's how I saw the behavior.
However, let me add: it wasn't two spaces. It was one; first I deleted the closing p tag and the line-feed and the opening p tag; at that point the last word of the former paragraph and the first word of the new were joined; I placed my cursor and hit the space-bar. That created the nbsp;. I just needed a freaking break after hours of staring at code. {shrug}.
