Just this morning, my posts suddenly seem to be spell-checked. They never have been before. What's happened? Anyone know?

It's your browser, if not even your very OS. Creative spelling will not be tolerated any more.
(Which depends... some applications rely on the system-wide language packs, some have their own - I don't know about IE...)

Weird though. It's never happened before. Just started this morning. I quite like it. I feel the great hand of the almighty paternal internet lifting me up.

Re: Is this Internet Explorer doing this or the board?
Last night I turned a Windows 7 laptop on for the first time in a few days and it decided for itself to download and install "Service Pack 1". Web searches suggest that that might allow IE10 (which I don't have) to use an optional spellchecker.
This may or may not be relevant !
Firefox has a spellchecker.

Re: Is this Internet Explorer doing this or the board?
I suspect that that is, indeed, very relevant, David. My machine decided, without a by your leave, to upgrade the browser to IE10 just the other day. So that's probably it, isn't it? IE10 doing it. I haven't noticed any other differences, apart from a slight change in look when you open a new blank tab.david_h wrote:Last night I turned a Windows 7 laptop on for the first time in a few days and it decided for itself to download and install "Service Pack 1".
