Ummm, not sure if this is something you have tried, or are even willing to try, but if you view the site with FireFox, it has a spell check installed in the browser itself.

Or for us Internet Explorer users, if you go to iespell.com, there's a spell check add-in you can install that uses the same library as the other Microsoft products for spell check.

There is no add-on to use. A spell check is encoded into the FireFox web browser, you do not have to add anything else to it.

Now, if you are saying you cant add any additional software to your computer, then that is an entirely different issue.

Default Spell check..

Kiwi, I miss the spell check too, but if there is a silver lining in not having it, it's because I've learned new words while searching the internet dictionary. I back-pedal to my favorites list where the dictionary is posted.
Easy Sister,
Reddog...
ps. How, I would love to float a trout fly on one of your rivers.

I miss the spell check, too; along with all the old posts and saved PM's. On the upside, it's good to know that the spell check is MIA instead of me just being too blind to find it or too dumb to figure out what part of my profile I don't have configured properly.

For users who can't install FireFox or another addon, you might type your replies in MS Word first - then copy and paste that into the reply box when you're satisfied with what you've written.

It's a bit of a hassle, I know (have had to do it before), but it works.
