AnOther Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Spell check is a browser function so it would help if you said what operating system and browser (and version) you are using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossy67 Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 If you're using Firefox you can download a spell checker that's quite good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre ZFP Posted August 16, 2011 Share Posted August 16, 2011 When you say 'I use Google' I assume you mean Chrome?If so, everything you want to know about spellchek (and more) is HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnycarper Posted August 17, 2011 Author Share Posted August 17, 2011 no i do not have chrome as it seemed to get a few negative comments on here,i do not have the icon below.Click the wrench icon on the browser toolbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tel Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 You appear to have the Google Toolbar which has that icon, most likely downloaded it with another programme by accident (as most people seem to do) unfortunately they have an opt out not opt in for their toolbar when choosing to download from the net.You can re-install the latest version of Google toolbar by clicking HERE then follow the instructions.
