whenever i write "attack" on the PL, it disolays "atttack".

Yes, it's to avoid auto-scripts being written which does things you don't want done.
As said, to prevent an attack being launched against someone, by simply clicking a link someone sent. There's a few other words that are changed also, but i can't recall them off the top of my head atm.

"Fill in this form, and we'll process your application" ->
"Fill in this make, and we'll process your application"
makes heaps of sense

Yeah there's quite a few. The word 'delete' becomes 'eliminate', at least that one still makes sense.
