Are there any good dictionaries that can be downloaded? I don't like having to go online every time I need to look a word up. I tried WordWeb but I didn't really like it since it uses 10mb for such a small program.

With M$ Reader (http://www.microsoft.com/reader/downloads/pc.asp) you can DL lots of books/dictionaries etc.

I hear that the Everest Dictionary (http://www.free-soft.ro/download.html) is pretty good. It supports 37 different dictionaries. Nicely FREE.

If you're not sure what you want at the above link, I recommend you download from category 2- National Specific Set=up Wizards. Include main program & dictionary of your choice.

Be forewarned -- the d/l is ~14MB.
