I am using Acrobat 8 Professional, but I strongly suspect that the
above question applies to Reader as well. Thanks for any answers.

I forgot to mention that I am running on Windows XP.

Also, I created an account to post this question at http://forums.adobe.com
. I tried to do this in the acrobat forum. However, there doesn't
seem to be a way to post a question. Entering in a subject simply
seems to result in a search.

What question ?
There is no question in the body of your post. Please don't split a query
between the subject and body.
"How to turn off underlining of hyperlinks in printout of PDF file"
Adobe Acrobat doesn't do that and I tested it with Notepad printing using
Acrobat PDF Writer v9 and PDFCreator. Neither underlined the URL in the PDF
but both Acrobat v9 and Reader v10 interpreted the URL based upon the
"http://" syntax.
Thus you have to look to the program that was used, such as a Wordprocessor,
to be doing that which is then used to create the PDF.
BTW: You have not properly defined "HOW" you actually created the PDF.
For example if you use Microsoft Word it will define a URL as a "Hypertext"
object and will underline the URL which will then be seen in the
subsequently generated PDF (ADP PDF Writer, MS Word Macro, etc.). In that
case, while in MS Word, you could put the cursor on the underlined the URL,
Right-Click, and then choose "Remove Hyperlink" and tghe "underline" will be
removed.
