do not start correcting peoples spelling.  jumping off the topic to correct spelling (you must know what they meant or you wouldn't know it's wrong) is the most annoying thing every.

it's like being in grade school and having to piss immediately, you ask the teacher if you can go to the restroom and she gives you a ten minute lecture on how you should have asked if you MAY go to the restroom.  meanwhile your teeth are floating as you dance up and down while trying to tie a knot in your dick.

try http://www.iespell.com/ it gives you a spell check tab in IE(only English though, I think).

my spelling was always horrible, I was usually the worst speller in my class in school.  it's improved drastically since I can see which words are wrong while it's fresh in my mind.

  it also takes care of the latest problem I've developed, where I get the letters down in the wrong order (another side-effect of last years accident).

not sure.

if you go to checksix.com it has a spellcheck tab when you go to the bottom of any thread.  if you click it, it will ask if you want to install the spellchecker into your browser.

that'd probably be the easiest way to check.

Acccording to Dan Quayle it's "Likely" But we all know it's a rule to drop the "E" before "LY"...
