    OK. I must be blind. Where is the Spell Check icon?

    [I am going to the eye doctor on Friday, by the way].

    Cool!! I just got done putting almost 700 miles on the Maverick since 5:00 Friday afternoon, so I guess I missed the forum being down. ;)

    Doug when you create or reply to a thread look in the upper right corner above the Smilies it is a ABC with a check mark.

    The spell checking works in combination with the forum and your browser. The new version of the forum triggers something in Fire Fox 2.0 or Internet Explorer 7.0 to verify your spelling as you type.

    Ah!

    I don't use Internet Explorer unless I have to. I use Firefox, but it is Version 1.5!

    Well I guess the guys at work thinking I'm old school is right! I bettter download Firefox 2.0 if it's available. ;)

    yep, and i completely wipe my comp every morning before i leave for work. if im on for a bit and active i have no problem, its like the browser times out. only gives me issues after say 5 mins. of idle time. no biggie, but just wondering what changed,if anything. could be on my end.
