Obviously the computer will be given a complete database of his opponent's games, whereas the human can't be given such a thing, unless the computer is continually reprogrammed. Suppose the computer lost a game some time, and the human knew how this game went. If the same opening is played, the human knows exactly how the computer will play, and can continue along the same moves as the previous game that the computer lost.
So if the human has access to the computer, the program has to be changed.
Also, even if the programmers were telling Deep Blue what to do, there is no excusing Kasparov's blunder in the last game. He simply lost it.
