Are you sure?
Mine suggests "u necessary"; and whether this is a valid response 
is matter of opinion.
All single letter words are considered valid (by most spell 
checkers) and "necessary" is a standard word so it seems to me 
the suggestion is proper even if somewhat startling.

By all means use a different checker if you don't like this; but
please don't use this example to denigrate the checker.
