Default Spell Check
Is this a new feature? Or is the new version of Firefox responsible?

Download ieSpell for IE and try that before switching browzers:

OK .....

I still recommend ieSpell for IE - it installs seamlessly and can be initiated from several locations - IE toolbar, mouse right-click and integrated button .....

I have chrome and it does the spell checker for me.

Sometimes I like to be a rebel and ignore the bastard thing telling me that I'm wrong with that silly red line.

Opera does this but I'm sure it uses an american spellcheck. As it keeps telling me to spell things wrong
