This seems to be a problem that occurs if you upgrade to XP - lots of info if you Google ...

Apparently it occurs if you upgrade MS Office

I think the spell checker for Outlook Express is supplied by MS Word.

There might be a solution here:

Thanks both of you. I have just upgraded office to 2007 and apparently thats what is causing it. I found a link http://www.snapfiles.com/download/dlspelloe.html  That puts American english on as the spellchecker, so that will do for now.
