Certainly done by NN itself.

I've also had this bug without dynamically writing inline styles (which I 
don't do anyway, too much chance of something going wrong in NN4). I 
remember that I once put an inline style in a P and in NN4's rendered code 
(URL starts with 'wysiwyg', check the title of the View-Source screen) I saw 
it redoubled with a TTYLE attribute.

Interesting, but contrary to what he says this bug also exists on Windows 
(in fact, I've only seen it on Windows).
