I'm mainly a Firefox user, so I haven't noticed it before. But recently I need to use Internet Explorer for a work project and it includes typing text in text fields. I've noticed that in comparison with Firefox where NVDA reports spelling errors with no problems, here in Internet Explorer it doesn't do it.

Steps to reproduce it:

1. Enable the reporting of spelling errors in NVDA's settings, if it is not already enabled.
2. Open Internet Explorer.
3. Make sure that the spell checker in Internet Explorer is enabled.
4. Go to a webpage containing a multiline text field.
5. Start typing something in the multiline edit field and make some intentional spelling errors, in order to trigger the spell checker to show the misspelled words (as underlined).
6. Read the lines with the misspelled words with NVDA

'''Actual results:''' NVDA doesn't report the misspelled words as such, even though visually they show as misspelled.

'''Expected results:''' NVDA should report the misspelled words as such in Internet Explorer, as it does in Firefox.

Test environment:

• Operating system: Windows 8.1 Pro N, 64-bit.
• Internet Explorer version: 11.00.9600.16384.
• NVDA versions: next-10671,9735db1; 2014.2.
