Spell Check does not work
Only recently made move from IE ... Running w& and Firefox 10.0.2
I have spell check enabled in Tolls>option>advanced Also if I go to tool menu bottom oprion is now shown as "Check Spellings"
However it does not work -example Thid speeling is nut corrcreted
If I 'right click' in this window it does show check spelling as "ticked", just does not work.
Not sure if relevant but spelling works fine in Thunderbird.

Do you have a dictionary installed and selected?
- You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.
- Open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one.
- Make sure that [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu is check-marked.
You can enable or disable spell checking globally:
- Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Browsing: "Check my spelling as I type"
You can look here for dictionaries:

Seems odd that although spell check as I type was enabled and "check spellings" was 'ticked' and it showed correct language under preferences - I still had to install a dictionary ... Fixed now anyway ... Thnx
