spell check
i know that some people have missed the spell check feature that the ultraboard had. i've found a solution, at least for people who use windows and internet explorer. it's a free program -- you install it, then right-click on the text box you've typed in, and choose "check spelling." it's great -- i'm really liking it.

Thank you!
As the little thing a the bottom of my messages says I am dyslexic and that makes me very paranoid about my spelling. Since I wasn't diagnosed with severe dyslexia till I was 18 and in uni I have spend a long time having people tell me how stupid I am because of my bad spelling which makes me very paranoid about putting anything in to writing in case anyone makes any comments. Being able to spell check stuff will make me so much less stressed I will add that on as soon as my laptop is sorted.
Thanks again.

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open and show riches
Ready to drop upon me that, when I waked,
I cried to dream again.
