Have you installed Microsoft Office 2007 on your system? If you have, this
is why you only see the French option when using the spell check in Outlook
Express.
The spell checker that installs with Office 2007 is not compatible with OE.
Your options are to use a third party spell checker for OE or downgrade to
Office 2003.

Subject: Changing default language in OE Spelling Check
Hi fellow listers. I just tried the Spelling Check in Outlook Express for
the first time, and it flagged almost every word in my message as
misspelled, even though they were, in fact, all spelled correctly. So I
went to the Spelling page of the Options dialog of the Tools menu, and
discovered the cause of the problem: the Language Combo Box lists French as
the one and only default. Since there is no list of other languages to
choose from in this combo box, how can I change the default language to
English so that the Spelling Check works properly? Thanks, or should I say
"merci".
