don't' <<< extra apostrophe?

When typing, I'm often seeing this trailing ' after contractions and can't
figure out how to stop it ... or why it happens. Any ideas/

This happens to me a fair bit. Are you a fast typist? I suspect that I
type " dont' ", getting my fingers a little out of order because I'm
moving fast. The AutoCorrect feature sees "dont" and corrects it to
"don't", but my apostrophe is still there.

I see this more in Word, but the AutoCorrect works pretty much the same
way in Word and Entourage. You can turn off AutoCorrect via Tools |
AutoCorrect, or just delete the entry to correct "dont" to "don't".
