For someone using the spell checker is really a puzzle, so solving a
puzle instead of puzzle is easier... :)
Now seriously. There are two things that make this problem. First, for
us who don't speak English so well, using a spell checker can really take
some time. For example, I write a word that jaws pronounces the same way
it pronounces the word that I intend to use. There is write, right, rite,
wright, and so on, of which some words even don't exist. Then the spell
checker offers the list of other words that don't match the word we want
and that's a trouble, so it consumes some time till we find out what the
right word is.
The other problem is that many people use the synthesizers for their own
languages to read even english texts and vice versa. That happens for many
reasons that I am not going to talk about now as my message is already
long enough. So many of those voices will read the word puzle in the same
way as they read the word puzzle, so when one hears it and understand what
it means from the context, the person will continue to use it, avoiding
the spell checker because of the previous problem.
I appologize for so detailed explanation of my opinion on this, but I
made it because it could be a very sensitive subject, as some of those who
are not native english speakers can be offended which I am certainly not,
as it also drives me crazy when someone insistantly writes in a wrong way.
Best regards!

Why do so many people talk about puzles instead of puzzles? A spell
checker or proofreading would quickly and easily cure this.
