Well, one of the biggest problems with these boards has been the lack of a spell-checker for your postings. Here is a site that offers a free, download that will do exactly that for you. I installed it and it works fine. To access it, you need only right-click outside the box (try near the "send message" button) and select "check spelling"...and there you are! This will now work for any and all MSN Groups. I have found it to work with most other sites as well.
