Hah! This is a familiar pet peeve. It seems that most checkers are
configured to correct mistakes for people that can't spell. There should
be a second mode - for clumsy typists. I'm one of them, and it is quite
annoying. The more comprehensive checkers, like in Office, offer the
correct versions only at the end of their suggestion lists. And some of
the simpler ones, like in Mozilla, sometimes don't offer them at all.
Could it be that the majority of people don't know how to spell, but are
consistent in 'correctly' typing out their ignorance?

I went in to PSP and tweaked some of the default settings and I'm thinking that did it. I guess it did install something that wasn't "activated" (for lack of a better word) until I started using the program. The new version has a lot of bells and whistles and previews! Keep your fingers crossed because that was really annoying, and THANKS AGAIN!
