 === Is there a way to install Spell-checking support manually? === #manual_win32_spellcheck_installation
 Yes, if the installer isn't able to successfully download and install the dictionaries, you can do so manually.
 
-Versions 2.7.0 and newer use the dictionaries available from the [http://ooodocs.sourceforge.net/dictinstall/ openoffice dictionary installer site].
-You need to download the appropriate language extension file(s).
-Once you have downloaded a dictionary extension file, extract the `*.dic` and `*.aff` files in it to `<Pidgin Installation Directory>\spellcheck\share\enchant\myspell\` (create the directories if they don't exist already). If Pidgin is running, it needs to be restarted for new dictionaries to be used.
+Versions 2.7.0 and newer use the dictionaries available from the [http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/dictionaries openoffice extension download site]. 
+You need to download the appropriate language extension file(s) (files are openoffice extensions `*.oxt`, which are just zip files that contain additional data). 
+Once you have downloaded a dictionary extension file, you can rename it so it has a `.zip` extension and then extract the `*.dic` and `*.aff` files in it to `<Pidgin Installation Directory>\spellcheck\share\enchant\myspell\` (create the directories if they don't exist already).[[BR]]
+If Pidgin is running, it will need to be restarted for new dictionaries to be recognized. 
 
 Versions older than 2.7.0 use Aspell; you can download both the Aspell core and a dictionary from [http://aspell.net/win32 the win32 Aspell website].
