Several Reasons:
Not enough chips to play effectively post flop.
Blinds are a significant % of your stack size, and stealing them will increase your stack and effective expected value on later hands.
You risk being blinded out by not taking gambles such as this with semi-strong hands.

But basically to summarise, it's a program that'll let you evaluate whether going allin preflop is right or not. It calculates your chances of winning vs. ranges of hands that other people will call you with. That's simplfying it a bit, but the tutorial will help you out there.
