more info download opinions problem?
  WildSpeller is an English spelling aid for Windows that can help when you know how to spell part of a word. Type the word, using wild cards "*" and "?", into WildSpeller, Asterisk (*) replaces any number of letters, including none; question mark (?) replaces exactly one letter. Click once and you have a list of words. You can select a word and copy it to the Windows clipboard with a double-click. If you use no wild cards, WildSpeller will list words that sound like what you spelled. WildSpeller knows over 144,000 English words, including American, British and Canadian spellings.   » more info, screenshot

 » GNU Aspell 0.6
download web site opinions problem?
  GNU Aspell is a Free and Open Source spell checker designed to eventually replace Ispell. It can either be used as a library or as an independent spell checker. Its main feature is that it does a superior job of suggesting possible replacements for a misspelled word than just about any other spell checker out there for the English language. Unlike Ispell, Aspell can also easily check documents in UTF-8 without having to use a special dictionary. Aspell also does its best to respect the user's current locale settings. Other advantages over Ispell include support for using multiple dictionaries at once and intelligently handling personal dictionaries when more than one Aspell process is open at once.

 » TinySpell 1.4
download web site opinions problem?
  TinySpell is a small utility that allows you to easily and quickly check the spelling of a single word from ANY application. Copy the word to the clipboard and look at the TinySpell icon, if it is yellow the word is misspelled, if it is white the word is spelled correctly. Click the TinySpell icon to pop up a list of suggested replacement words. It can also monitor your typing on the fly. TinySpell installs itself in the system tray for easy access. It comes with an American-English dictionary containing more than 110,000 words.
**Dee's Pick! Spell checking on the fly is great if, like me, you're not a touch typist. Perfect for spell checking message edit boxes too.

 » GlobalSpellChecker 1.1
download web site opinions problem?
  GlobalSpellChecker is a tool for checking the spelling or meaning of words from any application using Microsoft Word. It displays the meaning or spelling suggestion in a non-disturbing way so that you do not have to shift from the application you are working in. You can copy the word to be checked to the Clipboard by pressing Ctrl+C and invoke GlobalSpellChecker using hotkey Ctrl+Alt+S. Unlike other programs in this category, GlobalSpellchecker is loaded in memory only when called and exits after spelling check is complete. Requires Microsoft Word '97 & up.

 » Spell Checker for Edit Boxes 3.0
download web site opinions problem?
  Important: Spell Checker is designed for Windows 3.1; though it will work on many Win95 and NT programs it was not designed for those platforms. We decided to list this application because it is really hard to find a free program with similar features. An invaluable add-on for any text-based application. Will check text inside most Windows applications. Principal features: Checks the spelling of any edit control in almost any application. Will even work within applications with totally non-standard edit boxes (like Microsoft Access). Runs in the background, with hot-key support. Custom dictionary support (can be language-tagged). Custom dictionaries can be made read-only. Custom dictionaries are fully editable and searchable. Standard text, Rich Text and HTML clipboard formats supported. Commands to undo and ignore all. A very fast auto suggest feature. Detects and offers to delete repeated words.
Please go to the download page and select the language you would like or need.
