spell check coming up in French? instead of English

(Outlook Express) My email spell check looks like French or some other
language instead of English. Everything is English in the Microsoft Office
Word 2007. Words that are spelled correctly, it want to change to something
strange. Is there a fix for this as it's not any use the way it is?

Have a look here:

turn on the “Reveal formatting� Option and highlighting the text that would
not spell check then clicking on the Language link in the Reveal Formatting
windows pane and un checking “Do not Check Spelling or grammar�.

Click on Format then Reveal Formatting

Next click Highlight the text that is not spell checking and you will notice
in the right pane, that underneath the language option, it will change to
“French�

At this point you will need to click on Language in the right windows pane
and select "English defualt� I did notice that if you try to highlight more
than two pages of text at a time it will not work. Important not to highlight
more than two pages of text.) Continue doing this until you have reached the
end of your document, two pages at a time.
