3. Apostrophe Nazis are worse

and you don't use an apostrophe for a simple plural.

2. I have spellcheck.net in my toolbar.

You just copy & paste text in the box and click check.

It's great when DU is running slowly, or when blogger.com
is acting up.

4. I'll be getting it if I can find it.

one of the things I like about ieSpell is how quick it is. theres also a free spell check you can add to outlook express, it is the one from word I believe but it is a stand alone. I don't have word on my 'puter.

8. like I've said before I like IE and I tried firefox once a few years back

and for whatever reason I didn't like it, in fact I had to reformat to actually get it off my computer.:shrug: but to each his own. I have been using IE for 10 or so years except for the firefox stint with no ill effects that I know of. I even tried the beta of IE 7 but switched back to IE 6 when I replaced my hard drive a while back. IE 7 beta didn't have anything to do with the old drive being replace just wanted a bigger faster one.

6. Man, I despise IE, it is just so inviting to would be dastardly deed doers

Those DDDs just love to exploit IE, not to say that they don't fool with all the rest of them too. Like any old dog, I have my favorite, which is Opera, runs on windows, linux, bsd, my phone, so I totally like it's features and I have gotten it personalized over the years just the way I like it.

It has a sweet spell checker too.

9. I have read about opera and it sounds good but its the learning curve

that keeps me from switching to see if I would like it.

10. It's not that bad...

But I'd suggest firefox as being more IEish, and more flexible (Somedays I wonder how I coped without a wikipedia search box on my toolbar...)
