Any freeware spellcheck program that works with WordPad/Notepad etc ?

Hi There !

Could you name a good freeware program that can just live spell check when typiing into programs like Wordpad / Notepad Etc.

Word etc has its own spell check i know. I want something which can check in the above 2 programs and also when typing filenames/folder names etc in windows explorer.

Thanks a lot in advance

I tried tinySpell and it works, but it keeps switching off itself often and is a pain to activate again and again.

I also tried PhraseExpress since it is advertised and touted as a quick text paster and spellchecker. However, i couldn't get it to do anything. Neither is there any specific menu within its interface that even mentions Spell-Checking nor does it seem to work by default. I could only manage to create shortcut text snippets / signatures which you can quickly paste into programs.

If it's just spelling, why not copy it into a browser, e.g. here and use browser based spellcheck.
