Publisher's description of ieSpell 2.0 build 577

From Red Egg Software:

ieSpell is a free Internet Explorer browser extension that spell-checks text input boxes on a Web page. It should come in particularly handy for users who do a lot of Web-based text entry (e.g., Web mail, forums, blogs, diaries). Even if your Web application already includes spell-checking functionality, this utility is faster than a server-side solution. Plus, you get to store and use your personal word list across all your applications instead of maintaining separate ones on each application.

Note: The program installs as a new button in the IE toolbar (as well as a new menu item under Tools). After filling in a form, click the ieSpell button and it pops up a dialog similar to the Microsoft Word spell check.

Spell-checking options in word processing and e-mail programs save those who never won a spelling bee from looking like high school drop-outs. ieSpell adds a spelling checker to Microsoft Internet Explorer, providing a safety net for participants in interactive Web boards and people who use Web-based e-mail. We found the tool to be unobtrusive, convenient, accurate, and fast. When you want to check your spelling, activate the program from the Tools menu, the toolbar button, or by using the right-click menu. The intuitive interface resembles any other spelling checker out there, with options to add words to its dictionary and to ignore URLs and e-mail addresses. It includes a direct link to the online Merriam Webster dictionary, giving you the opportunity to expand your vocabulary as you work. Currently, ieSpell only works with the English language (but does include common U.S., Canadian, and UK dictionaries) and is only built for Internet Explorer. While we would like it to check our spelling as we type and fix punctuation errors, we're happy that it detected all of our misspelled words and offered spelling suggestions.
