Those non breaking spaces( :) are killer too. They are basically a 6 byte equivalent of a 1 byte space. I don't think you need them at all since you're using the Pre(pre-formatted text) tags. (I'd open it in notepad and edit->replace all of them with a space. Do it on a copy just in case it messes up the formatting too much to fix. It shouldn't though)
Dreamweaver has a clean up Word HTML command that will drastically reduce the size. I can't tell you by how much because opening the file in dreamweaver crashes my computer. I've seen it reduce the size by over half and with that much word formatting I bet it'll reduce it by at least that much.
Also.. Anyone not using the exact same font, font size, screen resolution etc as you isn't going to see those tables aligned correctly. I don't know if they're aligned for anyone else but for me it's off. If you're wanting compatibility with other computers you might want to put those in real tables. It's not going to be a fast fix. Consider it a learning experience. I know I've spent plenty of time fixing my own HTML.
(Try to overlook grammar, typos, and all other mis-information. It's VERY, VERY late.. or early..)
