Its been about 6 months or so Ford. Are you talking about the red squiggly line below the word which is spelled wrong?

No. I'm talking about typos. It automatically corrects them as one types. There is no red squiggly line, it just changes, as it does in Word, if you are familiar with that program.

Hi, Ford! I'm using Firefox on my iMac and I still see the dotted red line and no auto-correct. What browser are you using?

Mine underlines the misspelled word in red most of the time; sometimes corrects the word. It doesn't give you options for spelling like my e-mail.

I haven't noticed anything different.

My computer underlines the word in red and then I correct the misspelling. My kindle does 'auto correct' and that drives me crazy!

Totally!!

I notice the spell-correct thing on certain browsers and appreciate it. I'm pretty decent (oops, I just typo'd that last word and it didn't correct so I guess it doesn't work with IE9) at spelling but sometimes I spell a word incorrectly on purpose, like a word that is verboten here, and it changes it. The good thing is that, if you pay attention, you can just re-do it the way you want it and it leaves it alone the second time.

It works with IE11

I do not see any spell checker on Internet Explorer for this forum.

You don't see it. It just automatically changes the spelling if you misspell something. But, like I said earlier, it's not on all browsers. I'm on a computer with IE9 right now and it doesn't do it here but on my computers that have IE11 it works.
