Hey! I finally got my machine to accept IE 5 after losing everything I had to a virus a couple of months ago and now I can use the spell checker. Neat! And thanks, ben, for adding it for us "digitally challenged" folks. Now I gotta run back to the "front door" and see what else I've been missing. I see "pop ups" that tell me what each area is now, instead of an enigmatic "click to navigate" advisory <]:¬)

Greetings Jerry:

>>I finally got my machine to accept IE 5 after losing everything<<

Glad you've got it all sorted out now. Mark Hoffman ran into some problems trying to upgrade to IE6 (it wouldn't allow him to change his IE settings -- anyone have any idea how to fix that?), so IE 5 seems like the right choice.

>>now I can use the spell checker. Neat! And thanks, ben, for adding it for us "digitally challenged" folks.<<

You're most welcome, Jerry. We've actually got a better spell checker in the works that'll insert the corrected text back into the message. What's even neater is we think we can make it work with other features here on the VPC such as Chat.
