I just upgraded to latest FF and it seems it has a built-in spell checker? At first I thought it was the Threads software correctling the spelling, but now I'm using IE and don't seem to have the spell corrections...

I noticed that too and also thought it was Threads correcting the spelling - I thought that was a cool feature. The I realized it was FF.

That's one of many reasons why Firefox is the best wink

The only way to get spell check in IE is to download iespell. I still think FF is far better and only once in a blue moon need to use IE.

Shame several sites do not work with FF - especially several financial sites.

The only option is to use the IE plugin.

What versions started having the spell check built in?
I'm sure mine doesn't :grumble:

Ah right. So it's not automatic....

That's ok, as long as I'm not going mad!
