I had this same problem and tried to find a way to turn it off, but 
noticed that whenever I used underscores I was referring to elements of 
a program, e.g. method_name, variable_name, database_name, or /file/path 
etc...

So my solution was to use the following syntax:

=method_name=

=/file/path=

Surrounding the word in ='s like above causes the font to be exported 
inside an inline <code> tag, which renders as a fixed width font and 
ensures it's not confused as something else.  It also nicely disables 
the subscripting.
