As you create a new post or reply to the existing one, you will notice the following button in the upper right corner of the editor box:

It's is IeSpell, a free spell-checking tool for Internet Exlorer. It’s a browser extension that spell checks text input boxes on a webpage.

You will need to install it – it can be downloaded at http://www.iespell.com .

Once you install it, you will be able to spell check your post/replies right insight the forum editor window.

I am horrible speller… I used to try to type everything in MS Word first, spell check it before posting… I installed and have been using the IeSpell tool since we brought vBulletin on board, and I’ve been very happy with it.

You install it only once, and then just click on

to check your spelling.
It works like a charm. It will work on any other vBulletin forum you may be visiting, like BD…
