Does Speckie support spellchecking in other languages beside English, like Firefox and Chrome ?

Yep, it has a that will take you to the next linkt:

Just open the dictionaty you want to install it once Speckie is installed.

Speckie was featured in the French site Clubic.com : http://www.clubic.com/telecharger-fiche378944-speckie.html

Their review is, basically, "IE9 has no spellcheck, here's one, it supports many languages, it's easy to use, it's great".

I don't know if you like the fact they're hosting the file on their own download servers, however.

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this bug, but once I installed speckie, webpages took longer to load. About 5-7 seconds in some cases, visiting any site, from Google to here. Normally they pop up in a fraction of a second. After disabling speckie everything was good again. Using Win7 64 bit with IE9 RTM.

Other than that, it is a great add-on, nice work!

I'll look in to this, thanks for letting me know.

Yes, you can set the dictionary to use from the context menu.

My first Troll on neowin, yay!

its a problem some of us reported in the first few pages on this topic.

we have 64bit ie 9, and download the 64bit installer, after installing nothing shows up in ie addons, and so on.

But if we download the all in one one it works just fine.

btw paul thurrott mentioned your program on windows weeekly. some advertisement there :D Congrats on that :D

I'll have to keep digging at this one, I'm finding it difficult to reproduce. Stoked at being mentioned by Paul Thurrott !

Mauro, a suggestion, on the Speckie download page, next to the latest version number you should include the release date, as reference point so we know whether one has the latest version; just an idea, thanks!

You might disable any other add-ons and see what happens. It seems most problems with IE slowing down (when malware and other causes have been ruled out) is a wayward add-on, or add-ons not playing well together. Often, just reinstalling the add-ons help.

Ely, Speckie has a new version notification, it opens the http://www.speckie.com/changes page in a new tab when a new version is available. Note you can get Beta versions at http://www.speckie.com/beta but I don't push notifications for those.

Would it be possible to have an option to allow beta notifications? I like to use the latest stuff (or at least be notified), so having this as an option would be handy!

I'll see if I can get it in, I'm just trying to resolve a bug and adding a configuration page at the moment.

Thank you for posting, I had the same Issue on my system. (Windows 7 - 64 bit - IE9)

After I removed speckie the browser was good again.

Never again speckie, never again. :angry:

I don't see where that is fair. Sure, we all want everything to work perfectly and as expected every single time but that's not reality. Now some makers tell consumers off and are not receptive to criticism. mauro has bent over backwards to address issues quickly with this new and unique product - which for most of us, works perfectly.

    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
    • You didn't like Mafia The Definite Edition? As a fan of the first when it came out, I liked that remake.
