                Could it be because of your native language (not supported by spell checker...), since it works perfectly for me? After all Finnish language is one of the most used languages in the universe and beyond ;P

                              The odd thing is that, for me, the url is consistently leading to the error page, while it seems most people have no problem at all.

                                    yes it was... A "senior moment" is a term used when an individual (of any age) has had a "mental glitch", and is derived from afflictions often witnessed in elders ("seniors"). http://alzheimers.about.com/od/symptomsofalzheimers/a/seniormoments.htm[^]

                                          My point was that "Program Files" is supposed to be for nominally read-only things like DLLs, config files, etc. A spell checker will be subject to update ("add to dictionary") and so the libraries should be in "Program Data" not "Program Files".
