Default No spellchecker

I was on a dial up earthlink until 12-22, then I went to dsl, with
centurytel.net.. Now I do not have spell checker. I am using outlook express
and it said I must have microsoft word,excel or power point. Will I need to
buy one of these programs or is there something I need to do on my computer?
As stated above, I had it with earthlink..

OE 6 does not come with it's own spell check. You need Word or an MS Office
program. The spell checker in Works 4 through 6 will work with OE, but not
other editions. If you do not have such a program, you can download a free
spell check at one of these sites.

Were you using Outlook Express with EarthLink? If you were and the
spell checker was working in Outlook Express, simply switching ISP
and/or connection method should not have affected OE.

If you've just started using Outlook Express, then it expects to get the
spell checker from Word/Office versions 95 though 2003 or Works versions
4 through 6. If you don't have any of those programs, then see the URL
in my signature for links to other spell checkers that you can use.
