I used to have the spell check you've recommended but found one at Google.com...

Go to the Google website and over to the right click more. The second page will pop up and there's a free program they offer for spell check that becomes part of your toolbar, much better and much slicker.

Give it a try.

LOL
Troy can't even get the search to work, nor can he get the new reply window to work with Firefox. What makes you think he can get a spell checker to work?!

Tell me you do not do this!
Any internet spell checker puts an icon in the tool bar. Anything you type on any page will then be spellchecked with one click.

Because this is not C5 related, I do have a question, If you can't spell to begin with, how can you attest to the fact that it is a good spell checker???
AS an engineer I need to know the data... I once spent a whole night in the refrigerator just to see, in fact, if the light really did go off and more importantly stay off....
