There is some setting somewhere that has a spellchecker with autocorrect turned on when I write posts here - it keeps changing (e.g.) matchpoints to "watchpoints"
Is this a forum setting or a computer setting (Safari on a mac) and how do I turn it off?

It's almost certainly a setting in your browser.

Found it in the browser settings, thank-you. No idea how it got turned on.
