[Building Sakai] Spell Check in Discussions and Private Messages tool freezing in IE9

[Matthew Jones]

This isn't core and it also isn't code that we maintain.

I've done some fixes to the After the Deadline plugin for IE in 2.9 (there
were a lot of them) but none of our clients use the other Spell Checker.

Your screenshots are also in the FCKEditor so it's likely to get even less
attention. If you're still using that in 2.9 without the IE8 backward
compatibility property turned on (which it appears from the first
screenshot) I'd suggest switching the default editor to CKEditor or
re-enabling IE8 backward compatibility for your entire instance as there
was a "non ending list of problems" that were never fixed for FCKEditor.
[1] This was one of the big reasons we had this option on for 2.8.
