Richard and Dallas,

I have used firefox on my personal laptop a little. This new laptop is for my work and I will talk to the IS guy and see what he thinks. Otherwise I think I can spell, alsdpoit somektjofg I can;kdt.

Sitting in an airport right now, at least I get to leave today. This WIFI is pretty neat, first time use. Waiting for my wireless card, so this will do.

Happy Trails,

Paul

Paul, the button at the bottom of the posting area titled "spell check".  If I ferget, thehn mi splling gits bahd!
Clicking on that button, instead of "Post" will highlight what it thinks are mis-spellings.

Kind Regards, Phil

And if you use Firefox, instead of I/E, it will underline the mispelled words as you type. Much faster and easier than the I/E spell check. In fact, it underlined mispelled as I am typing this. the correct spelling is actually misspelled it says.

Besides Spell check, there are lots of other very useful extensions for firefox too. At the top of the window, go to >tools >Extensions and in the bottom left corner of the little window click on "Get More Extensions"
A good one that I use is "Ad Block Plus" which blocks a lot of unwanted junk in loading a page and is congiurable for the rest.

Dallas, Help. I do not get an Extensions box when I open tools. Any idea why that would be?

Probably because you are using Firefox 2.0 while I'm happy with Firefox 1.5.0.12

Even though FF2.0 is a whole new upgrade, It has lost some features that I like, like the extensions feature.

You may try going to the help section and type in "Extensions", and see if it gives you a link to Mozilla where you can add more features.

In other words,.... damifino!

That did it. Thanks. BTW, my spell check says you misspelled  damifino! LOL

For anyone who would like to try the excitement of Firefox and get away from some of the problems encountered with Internet Explorer here's a direct link to the Mozilla Firefox download site:
