| | Vista Windows Mail will not spell check anymore Was in the middle of spell checking a lengthly doc in widows mail that took an hour to compose. In the middle of the spell checking the mail client froze on the word 'their' A security notice halted the mail client (cant remember what it was but it was 2 letter acronym) I clicked ok and windows mail shut itself down (crashed) When I restarted the main client spell check will not work anymore. Tried rebooting server to no avail. |

| | Re: Vista Windows Mail will not spell check anymore This problem could be caused by your antivirus program. Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee and Norton security programs. Those will need to be uninstalled, NOT just disabled. After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download and install a more compatible antivirus like: AVG free edition: http://free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/us/frt/0?prd=aff or Avast free edition: http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html With either of those, during the install phase you must select custom install, and then deselect the email scanning option. -- Gary VanderMolen (MS-MVP WLM) "waystar" <waystar@xxxxxx> wrote in message news 4C2D4F6-73B8-4962-AF57-5A4BAC2DFCAD@xxxxxxQuote: > Was in the middle of spell checking a lengthly doc in widows mail that took > an hour to compose.
