You require to have MS Word on your system in order to get a spell checker.
If you haven't got Word I believe there are some cheap spell checkers
available.
Someone else may be able to tell you

Thanks for your reply. Tried several free spell checkers. None work.
Thanks again

One solution is to remove OE and switch to Netscape for mail and NGs.
Netscape has a built-in spell checker and seems less prone to swallow
virii than OE.
