The spelling cow is dumb.
It takes extra time to load, makes the page interactivity slower, and is totally redundant for people who use FireFox 2.0, which has a spelling checker built right in.

Furthermore, since FireFox's spelling checker is active on every single webpage where I type stuff in, its dictionary already knows words that spelling cow things are mistakes (like, for example, FireFox, or LSR, or Burridge)

And I am not going to spend my time teaching a cow what the FireFox already knows.

Please, kill the cow, or at least make this a cow-optional community.

Thank you.

Where is this cow?  I don't see it on the board.  I usually just go to word and do a spellcheck there and then come back on here and type the word.  How do you spellcheck with firefox or whatever then?

Kill the cow, that is a funny topic heading!  :laughing6:

OK, ok, at least unchecking the box makes the cow go away.

Folks, just go download Firefox 2.0. Trust me.

This is an udderly silly thread, but I thought I would Moo-ve in and milk it for all it,s worth. Then hoof it out of here, for better pastures.
