Hey Glyn,
Within the english dictionaries distributed by the win32 port of aspell,
there are two
files in the data directory that are screwed. They are ISO8859-1.dat and
standard.krb. They have dos carriage returns in them. Running a unix
dos2unix
command on them, and replacing them will fix the problem. If you don't
have
access to a unix box, this website does the trick:

Best,
Drew
