This has been discussed before on a number of occasions resulting in a number of suggestions for alternative ways to spell check.

Thanks Alec for the links - they so no more than above - that being that something has changed with the server and there seems to be nothing we can do about it
Ross- can you please push on this one - we don't all see ourselves as perfectionists

Jon,
the Google toolbar/spell check is better because it's a proper English spell checker rather than the corrupted english one evolving from the US of world domination.

Eye Halve A Spelling Chequer
Eye halve a spelling chequer,
It came with my pea sea.
It plainly marques four my revue,
Miss-steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it to say,
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait aweigh.
As soon as a mist-ache is maid
It nose before two long,
And eye can putt the error rite
It's rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased too no,
It's letter perfect awl the weigh,
My chequer tolled me sew!

Re: Spell check - where is it?
I spell check by looking up the word in the dictionary. How old fashioned...

At least you're not checking your spell by having some serf drink the potion after you've cast it. Now that would be extremely old fashioned
