Free Spell-Checker

TinySpell is an impressive little utility that checks individual words on a correct-as-you-type basis, from clipboard contents or from a query box. The provided 110,00 dictionary is not enormous but more than adequate for normal usage and you can also add words to the dictionary as needed. Resource usage seems modest and the product can be easily enabled/disenabled from the taskbar icon. It has one odd feature; the dictionary has both American and English spelling so words like "color" and "colour" both show as correct. Overall, it's quite a solid product and an excellent companion to WordWeb.
