new setup?...or old setup?

I will look into options for adding spell checking to the forum but if you want to try FireFox, you can download it here:
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/
It is VERY popular these days...

ok just tring out friefox instead of IE still hasn' t underlined my spelling mistakes, Im not to worried about it, my spelling that is. others might be though.

[cichlidfish]

Well, so how do you like "fried" fox?

[Tony.H]

well actually not to bad so far i have a bot in my computer that was affecting IE and am having trouble tracking it down, Its not affecting firefox so thats awsome. So far so good.

Firefox is fantastic, and much more secure compared to IE. It has a script blocker etc, spell check. spell check is a recent addition though, been using firefox for a long time and it's only since I've last updated that I've been gifted with spell check. Mind you red squiggly lines are ignored by me. You have a bot on your computer affecting IE? Get spybot search and destroy...Free d/L I think. Also adaware is fantastic for spam etc. I never get plagued with the stuff.

[Tony.H]

yea i have spybot S&D its been really good to me but it cant seem to find this one, well actully I think it does and says its got it but it keeps coming back, Damm Zedo must be deep rooted,

My Firefox still dosn't do the red line thingy I downloaded the uk version could this be why?

[cichlidfish]

Go to Tools menu, then Options, then the Advanced tab, you should put a checkmark on the "check my spelling as I type"...If it's not there maybe download the US version.

[Tony.H]

This is funny i did all of the above and its all as you have described and spell check was already checked thats ok (still dosent <- work) anyways i went to the language set up and and it nicly set it up for NZ english automaticly, So now am laughing cause this must be the reason, It thinks cause we are NZers spelling obviously dosent really matter anyway, So now im going to see what happens if i change what country im in, maybe aussie seen as they think they are far more superior.

[cichlidfish]

That's probably it, firefox likely thinks you're not in "english" mode and it probably only has support for english by "default". There might be a language setting somewhere in firefox to fix that so you don't have to do it from windows control panel stuff which changes language setting to affect all applications not just firefox...

[Tony.H]

yes ive got it, I had to download a dictionary (Aussie one) so from now on any spelling mistakes its their fault I just want to clarify that

[Tony.H]

Oh and does firefox have a page refresh button .

[cichlidfish]

LoL, ok we'll keep that in mind, glad you got it working , I'm sure you're seeing all red now and for a change it might not be the beer

[cichlidfish]

[quote="Tony.H"]Oh and does firefox have a page refresh button .[/quote]

LoL, I guess talk about bloodshot?

Take a look at the top to the left of the little house/home, there's a blue arow that circles around: refresh

[Tony.H]

I have to admit I've had a couple of beers again, so now firefox is awesome.

[cichlidfish]

Right on brother! How'd ya think FireFox got so popular, if you bought the registered version it came with free beer!
