Spell Check not working and I have tried all suggestions

The spell check is not working in my version of MS Office 2007 in Word ( I
have not tried the other applications). I have tried all the suggestions

Including:
Check if the registry key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared
Tools\Proofing Tools\1.0\Override" exists and if it does delete it.

Office Button >Word Options > Add Ins > Manage (select disabled items)
Click on the English dictionary and re-enable it.
Close and re-open Word and Outlook.

I did notice when I logged out and created a new user within Windows, and
opened Word 2007 in the new user spell check did work. I read somewhere in
this forum it meant a I had "corrupt user profile". Any ideas on to fix
that???

The fix is to simply delete the corrupt user profile and use the new one
instead.
