For the second half you’re incorrect, under Windows use the back slash.

Re: American Spell Check problem
I, too, am not a regular Windows user, but I believe you're supposed to use
forward slashes ("/") instead of back slashes ("\").

Re: American Spell Check problem
I hate to sound Illiterate, but am I supposed to enter the address with percentage points as well. I assume the Windows explorer bar (address bar) is at the top of the screen and not at the address bar a few inches under?
