Spell Check Google Toolbar

Gomez's avatar

I'm not sure if this topic will be allowed or not, but the Google toolbar for IE and FireFox have a feature that automatically spell checks your post for you. I use it on every post I make to fix those stupid mistakes when I type in a hurry. I know this forum is very harsh to those who make very stupid spelling errors and I thought I'd recommend this as a way to eliminate many of the future errors.

While I'm a strong disbeliever in toolbars, google has a good one. There are n toolbars out there that use or come with spyware, rootkits, and other malicious software.

Firefox has a plugin/extension called Spellbound that you can also use to check your speleeng.

Ben,
The latest version of firefox doesn't seem to work with spellbound. Or at least I havent' been able to get it to install.

Damn I love Firefox.. even if spellbound does not work with the latest version. It's like pointbuzz premium without the premium! :-D *** Edited 2/15/2006 7:18:39 PM UTC by Coastern3rd***

I'm still a fan of the "Beer O'clock" countdown. I'm hoping that spellbound is updated soon to work with 1.5+.

I found a work-around for Spellbound in 1.5.0.1. Uninstall the old extensions (tools -> extensions). Install from here...

Then install the language library...
