I think if it's a small error, or just a few, let it go. Even if it's big, you definitely don't want to point it out in front of the class-- that takes too much authority away from him. You could discreetly tell him when no students are around.
I'm pretty sure you can edit Powerpoints you find on the internet, but I might be wrong.
Oh, yeah, I would never do it in front of the students. It's just doubly annoying to me because dialogue is a pretty important word as an Enlgish teacher and student.

"It’s a damn poor mind that can think of only one way to spell a word!"
I just got done helping my dad's friend edit a powerpoint presentation for a conference this weekend. The guy is of course Indian. He is in the US just for this conference. Almost every slide has some kind of grammer issue. I tried helping him with his sentence structure, but after he decided that his sentences were ok, and I was wrong, I just gave up. It was much easier letting him do it his way. I'm sure most of the people at the conference won't even care...
