Personally Geoff as a dyslexic I use a belt and braces approach of spell checking first then using the dictionary to confirm things.

Computers don't know how to spell. They just think they do....
I've never seen things spelt so consistently wrong since they introduced computer spellcheckers.
Use a dictionary - they are much more reliable. And you can check that the word you are trying to use is actually the right one - not something the computer has decided might to foist upon you , which turns your sentence into gibberish.
Quack!!

Fiddler, Outlook Express uses the spell-checker that is incorporated in MSWord.

Try going into the "tools" menu while you're inside a message. Look for a "spelling" entry. If it's grayed out, you won't be able to use that spell-checker, and will need to install MS Word.

I've been using a great little piece of freeware, Tiny Spell.   It has no spyware. Unlike other spell-checkers, it can also check your spelling on the fly from any application.
