'You're' means 'you are', 'your' never ever means that.
'Your' is a possessive pronoun, and can only be used when you mean that
something belongs to 'you'.


I think people generally know this but cant be bothered when typing for
usenet, theres a general conventoin not to worry to much about such
things as spelling and grammer,

did you understand all that in spite of errors, of course you did. Very
often your you're gets left to the whim of the spellcheck.


Or should that be a spelling check/checker?

(Wouldn't a spellcheck be more useful to a sorcerer's apprentice or
Harry Potter?)

Although common it frequently goes undiagnosed.
