Spell check and auto- correct
I am fine with - i even appreciate - the little red line that appears under questionable spellings.
I am not so fond of auto- correct. It has taught me to proofread things before hitting " send.."

After a Windows update, my email started suggesting what I wanted to type. Drove me round the bend because it was so distracting. Then Windows wanted my feed back on their nifty new 'help'. I sent a blistering, just short of obscene, reply and figured out how to disable their 'help'. I turned off auto-correct on my phone too, but yes, once and a while one will slip thru.

Me too! Drives me batty. Don't they have the word "sew" in their dictionary? Another thing is my Kindle. I can't backspace to correct a word. It puts a space in the wor d if I try to do it (just like the word wo r d). Lol. Worse auto correct I've ever used.
