Spellchecker

Options
If you're using Internet Explorer, there's now a spellcheck button spelling.gif at the top-right of the reply box, but there isn't a spellchecker built into vBulletin - You have to download the spellchecker for use with your browser.

The first time you click it, it suggests you instal IESpell and should take you to the download page - but it doesn't!

Instead you can download and instal IESpell from here.

And from then on the spellcheck button will work - and you'll have a spellcheck to use on lots of different online forms :j

EDIT: Put up a quick post with screenshots here

    Does this only work with IE? I use Firefox.

    Last i checked, this button was for use with IESpell (IE) only.

    But IESpell want to support Firefox in the future, and vBulletin want the button to support Firefox extensions like Spellbound.
    Not sure if either of these things have happened yet.

    If Spellbound still works (Haven't tried it since vbulletin was updated), You can use it without that button anyway. Just right-click the reply box and the spellcheck should be an option
