And don't say short trip! ;)

All seriousness aside, I finally upgraded to IE10 yesterday and, so far, I've been loving it, especially the spellcheck except for the stupid autocorrect function. I've caught it "correcting" words that actually were spelled correctly (or, at least, the way I intended). It scares me to think of the instances of when I don't catch the autocorrect miscorrections. So far, I've only found how to shut off spellcheck but not just autocorrect only. Anyone know how?

If you go to View installed updates you'll see the language version of spell checker and a Hyphenations update which I believe is the update that corrects as you type.
I've got an iphone 4 which does the same silly thing ie10 does :)

For some odd reason, IE10 "decided" to stop autocorrecting. I have no idea why and don't care as long as it keeps behaving.

Thanks but that only tells how to completely turn off spelling correction, not just auto correct. I like and want the spelling correction—it works much better than any third party spelling corrector I've tried—but I don't want the stupid auto correct.

For some dumb reason, auto correct is working again (mutter, mutter, mumble, mumble). What really annoys me is it autocorrects capitalization. I first noticed it when typing the name for LapTop magazine; it "corrected" the T. Since then, it gives me the squiggly line when I type the name with the uppercase T so apparently it can be trained but that would depend on me catching it doing the initial autocorrect, which is highly unlikely with my ADHD.
