That’s not an HTML tag, it’s a shortcode. If your theme used the the_excerpt() function for displaying the ‘compact version’ of the post content then this wouldn’t appear. WordPress strips shortcodes out of post excerpts to prevent this happening.
If your theme is using its own method for generating the excerpt then its developer needs to fix the theme so that excerpts properly remove shortcodes. This can be achieved with the strip_shortcodes() function.
