Spell-checkers can be very tricky. You say to yourself, "Ooops, misspelled that frickin', frackin' word again, and click on the correction before you notice the spell-checker doesn't actually know (ie. guess right) what you intended to say, nor what would actually be a sensible choice in the context.

(footnote: it's a little known fact, but the real reason that HAL locked Dave outside was, because Dave habitually declined HAL's spelling recommendations in the ship's log.)
