need free spellchecker - help
Posted: Mar 20, 2015
Can anybody suggest an inexpensive medical spellchecker program? I have Stedmans 2008 on my "other computer" which quit working earlier this week, won't be fixed til next week. had to get an inexpensive replacement today so I can work -- can't afford to be not able to work for that long and it will do as a backup in the future. Apparently Stedmans does not "service" the 2008 edition anymore and I can't load it on this computer because they don't do the activation, etc., stuff anymore. Much to my shock to get another version is $99.95!!!! Certainly can't afford that and they don't offer any kind of "30-day free trial" version. any suggestions will be most helpful and appreciated. :)

http://en.softonic.com/s/stedman-s-medical-dictionary is a free version if that helps.
Be very careful with anything you download from Softonic. - sm

Their downloads often include bloatware or malware. Watch carefully when/if installing and decline any "extra" offers.
Would be a good idea to install and use Malwarebytes afterwards, if not doing so already.

thanks for your replies and cautions. I managed to find a recent edition of my spellchecker saved on one of those little USB storage things from when I changed computers once before and was able to load it so I was a happy camper :)

A New Company & Options For Spellchecker Jun 29, 2010I started with a new company and I did not have spellcheck, so I ordered it and it was quite expensive for the 2010 one.

This has really ticked me off because I was TOLD that I needed to download a spellchecker and now I cannot send it back because I have downloaded it. Is there anyway that I can use this spellchecker instead of theirs?
Any feedback will be appreciated. ;) ...

Free At Last!!! Oct 25, 2009After working for MQ for nearly 5-1/2 years, I'm finally leaving. The first 5 years were great! Then they decided to force QAs to do transcription and ASR. If I wanted to transcribe I would have applied for an MT job. Not to mention the fact that I was making close to $16 an hour and now this has been reduce to around $11 and sometimes under $8. It's MQs loss. It's too bad they don't treat their valuable employees better. I just love ...

I also am working for another company on the side so that helps :)
