Netscape has it's own spell checker built in. From my experiance with Explorer (Out Look), it needs MS Word for the spell checker. I don't like Explorer, me perfers Netscape.

Lamar: Copy the files from your old browser's Favorites sub-directory before you delete the old browser. After you delete it, you can copy these files to your new browsers favorites sub-directory. This way, you won't have to recreate it. Jim

Lamar, re >Do I need to delete my old browser now or did the new update overide it?< Not sure. When I downloaded a new Netscape browser, the old one stayed and was still usable. I'd be reluctant to erase anything now. Unless, you temporarily change the folder name and then, if the new browser still works, delete the folder. Deleting will just put it in the recycle bin anyway. So you could get it back. But you've had enough problems to make any changes for a while. If the spell checker in your brand new e-mail program doesn't work, get your money back.<vbG> Seriously, what exactly happens when you have typed a message and press the spell check button? GM

Lamar, Great! To All: Do you delete your history files, temp. internet files and cookies daily? Not deleting these files will fill a hard drive in no time. All three of the files are located @ MY COMPUTER/C:/WINDOWS/ Click on the file name, select all then delete. Nice thread, Doug
