You no longer have spell checking capabilities in some languages in Outlook
Express 6.0 after you install the 2007 Microsoft Office system:

Office 2007 breaks OE's spell check. Downloading a free spell check is the
simplest way around this.

TinySpell:

If you have a previous version of Office, see this:

Using OE-6 under XP-Hm-MCE

OE's dictionary recently decided to change its language habits. For each
and EVERY word in a msg (if I allow it to go that far), it, the dictionary
comes back with a foreign language alternative.

Did I execute some kind of switch? ToolsOptionsSpelling tells me that
it is French! No other languages are made available.

Befuddled, (no French alternative to this word!)
