or as someone once suggested to me, type it up in a word document and use the spell check there. Once you've spellchecked and are happy with the finished product, cut and paste it here.

For those using Internet Explorer as a browser I suggest you go to www.iespell.com and install this program.
It will give you a spell checker in your tool bar. No need to write in Word then check, write in any forum reply box, click the ieSpell check and away you go.

I've found with FF2, that unless you download the Australian dictionary, you'll get US (default) definitions.

Spell check plug-ins are available for Internet Explorer too people, just clearing that up, as someone mentioned. I find Firefox's better because it automatically spellchecks as you type, just as if you were typing in Word (ie you don't have to use a toolbar).

It's really good they are coming out with these plug ins for the browsers, just need to remember to keep an eye on the settings and make it Aussie spelling :)

Firefox would be a good start, but as M$ doesn't include it in any of their OS's, then it just isn't good enough for some people. It must be crap if M$ doesn't support it!

Then again, those who seem to have problems with spelling and grammar are mostly M$ users who, no matter how many people they ask, just can't seem to get it all working as they would like it. IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO WORK AS YOU WANT IT TO. It's Micro$oft, and your pc will only work how Bill Gates wants it to work.

But seeing as how xtcc has left Nick's (again), this info is pointless as it won't be read by the person it was intended for.
