For some reason spell check has been disabled on all my programs. In Adium I have spell check turned on yet there is no red squiggly when I type gibberish. This is also the case for Notebook (2005 World Book) as well. Does anyone know why? I don't remember changing anything and I can't find any settings under System Preferences. Thanks
In Activity Monitor, is there a process named AppleSpell running? If there isn't, does it come on when you reboot? If it still doesn't appear, then create a new user account and tell us if it's there.
