WordTalk doesn't have homophone checking - it has a talking spellchecker and
thesaurus. Seems to be stable unless you try it with Word 2003 on Vista when
we've heard of problems.
It gets downloaded from our site about 900 times a month so seems to be
working.

It's freeware and it seems to do most of the things that Texthelp does.
Can't see any mention of homophone checking however...
The other thing I suppose is - how stable is it?
