1) Misuse of 'your' (e.g. your wrong)
2) 'could of' instead of could've (e.g. Iran could of sent in reptilian secret agents to kill Steve Fossett)
3) Isreal rather than Israel (this one isn't as common as it used to be, but still crops up occasionally)
4) Usage of plurals with apostrophes in them (e.g. usage of plural's with apostrophe's in them)
5) Usage of their or there instead of they're (e.g. their not going to nuke America)
This to me, is stuff you learn when you are 6, 7 years old.

Well I don't know how to dumb it down for whatever nationality you are, but around here we're taught to capitalize proper nouns, like Americans.
It's not easy, so here's a wiki link:
When to capitalize
After all, this is the spelling thread, so I'd be remiss not to point this out.
Someone actually responded to me!!! cool
