spellcheck web sites?

Sorry, bad description...hopefully this comes across:

I would like to write an app that I can select a window using a crosshair 
cursor, and if that window contains text, to be able to spellcheck it.

I was checking out the Addict spellcheck component, seems really good, but 
the impression I get is that I need to hook the mouse to detect the window 
selection, and then the component doesn't actually recognize natively the IE 
client window contents...
I would either have to extend it, or use it from within a DLL, which is not 
documented (or I can't find docs that help me on this).

Anyone have any ideas, or suggestions for getting started with the listed 
obstacles?

I would be ok with just "grabbing" the text and displaying it in a small 
scrollable window in my application, where I can spell check it natively 
with Addict or other component...but unsure the best way to go about 
"grabbing" the text from the website.
I have BCB5 currently.

Thanks in advance,

Martin
