How do you pronounce it? What words does it replace? And why do people use it so much?
I ask because it confuses me alot when I see it...

It can mean you're, or your, and it means people are too lazy to write their complete words and use the grammar they learn in school.

I have seen "ur" for 'your' or 'you're".
I don't personally like that way of spelling, because it looks very awkward and illiterate. I have both hands to touch-type, so it is much easier for me to almost unconsciously type 'your' or 'you're'.
