I use Mobipocket Creator as my default PDF converter. I always convert the prc it creates to epub rather than the HTML. I have no evidence that it would make a difference in this case but it could be worth trying.
Why do I convert the prc and not the html. My default viewer for prc is the Calibre Reader, my default viewer for HTML is Firefox. By opening the prc I can get a better idea of what the Epub will look like after conversion - if its 'good enough' then I drag it into the calibre book details panel.
If the prc is not 'good enough', then I try alternative converters - Hamster, Nitro PDF/Word, Calibre itself... sometimes I give up.
BTW - what's unison 'got to do with it' - I assume you're referring to the file synch tool.

but they are still Anchors
The real question, is WHY they converted to Anchors in the first place?

How do you know they are Anchors - in the sense that they are clickable-on to navigate to somewhere.
It may be that the text is simply colored blue and underlined - the sticky note gadget I use behaves similarly in certain circumstances - its easily overcome - so I stick with the gadget
