How can you type your own name and not notice it change before your eyes? Sheesh!

It led to the IT guys spending a couple of days researching the Archbishop of Canterbury virus.

I did something similar to a friend in high school. I edited his spellcheck in WordPerfect to always change the word "come" to "cum" and the name of his English teacher to "that crazy *****". He was really confused when he got called into the principals office. This was back when you had to run spellcheck after the fact. He would always make it do the changes without monitoring them.
