Of all the expanders I've tried, it's been the easiest to learn and use.  Good graphic user interface, too.  Lots of features.  Read the help file and manual because there are a lot of neat features I didn't even know about until I read about them.

Then it's $99.95 to purchase it at the end of the free trial, but it pays for itself and is really easy to use.  That'll give you a month to save up the money for it.  My stats vary on it anywhere from 26% to 67% depending on my dictator.

I use the Abacus line counter. They have a trial version which is free and gives you accurate line counts, or you can buy it for $20. Here's the link: http://www.theabacus.biz

You can download a free 30 day trial medical spellchecker at Sylvan.  I've never used it, and I'm sure there are others out there, but these will get you by in a pinch.

that my Spybot and Ad-Aware missed.  I had some nasty at the time that my trial version of Ewido took care of quite nicely that the others couldn't.  Definitely worth the download. 

So glad you posted the above, about the newer version (still had the old expired exe's in a file on my computer just as a reminder to think about buying it at some point).

You can also download other people's dictionaries off the 'Net, but I chose to make my own according to my own abbreviation rules for ease of remembering.  I think there are other websites to download from besides this one, but I can't find them right now.  I tried Instant Text and used Word's Autotext feature, but I kept coming back to Shorthand.  Just make sure you read the Help file and tutorial because otherwise, you'll miss out on a lot of valuable features.

There was a site about 8 months or so ago that we would go to and we were able to download the Meditech program for free.  Once you have the meditech, you need your own clients numbers to access the modem, but the program itself was not a security issue.  I was just wondering if anyone knew of another site with the download.

I had something like that too awhile ago.  Because of this "thing," I had a hard time staying on any website, let alone trying to download Malwarebytes.  But I kept trying and finally, the next day, I was able to get it downloaded and ran.  It took the problem away and saved me a huge headache.  This "thing" was something like Spyware 2008, I just can't remember exactly.  I just know it said something about spyware and everytime I tried to go to a site, it would pop up and I couldn't do anything at all.  Somehow, though, I managed to bring up Malwarebytes and inbetween closing the spyware thing and its popping up again, I got Malwarebytes loaded.  I also have McAffe, AdAware and Spybot but they didn't stop this thing. 

One thing you need to do, if you don't already, is update your antispyware and adware protection.  Do it at least once a week because new bugs are coming out constantly.  I even run an update on McAffee even though I think it's supposed to do it automatically, just to be safe.

Right now I have some stupid "MywayWebSearch" or something like that and I cannot get rid of no matter what I do.  Besides the 3 listed above, I even ran SuperAntispyware and Spyware Blaster and still can't get rid of it! I think I have managed to quarantine it though, cuz it doesn't seem to be causing the havoc anymore.  These are all Free, by the way, and they do keep my computer pretty clean for the most part.  I run scans every couple of days, and do the other maintenance stuff. 

Good luck to you and give these things a try before you spend money.  If they don't work, nothing lost, if they do.... money saved!
