    I agree with the spell check and the need for one.  Since I went to Firefox for a browser I have one on this site.  Might try a changer in browser.  PK

    A spell check doesn't do it all however.  Notice it didn't catch the use of a wrong word, just misspelling.  That was my fault for not proofreading. PK

    I`m computer stupid too, but I`ve got a friend who knows how to deal with that...  :thinkerg:
    Spell check would be a nice feature. I`ve got a dickshonaree at my desk for emergency...  :woo:  :netherlands:

    Brad, I've had great luck with Firefox fwiw.  It's free and has regular updates.

    It underlines a misspelled word to let you know it's wrong.

    My pet peeve - the correctly spelled but mis-used word.  My personal pet peeve - using the word "breaks" to refer to the parts that bring a car to a stop.   :swear:

    Brad in firefox go to options or book mark manager and look for import bookmarks I don't have firefox but it should be in there if you look around.
