Open Office Writer Spell Check problem

I just installed Open Office version 3. In Writer, the word processor, it considers every word mis-spelled. That is, it underlines every word in red. This has happened on multiple machines, all running Windows XP. How can I fix this? Thanks.

I've never used Open Office - but I'd check for a "Language" option. Maybe its set to Spanish...

Same problem as you-

Did you manage to resolve it? I'm still stuck with the squiggles beneath every word
