I am guessing, but maybe it has something to do with your (hebrew) language settings? Do you have the most recent version? My copy underlines that just like Word does...

Yes, I have the latest version, and I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find any setting that controlled it.

Hey, I have same issue :/ I blogged about it as well, and posted comment on WMW blog. I don't have english windows too, and there is no official WMW release for my language so I think it might have something to do with it :/

I've made a custom launcher to fix this issue:

using System.Globalization;
using System.Threading;

class Program
{
static void Main()
{
string exe = @"C:\Archivos de programa\Windows Live Writer\WindowsLiveWriter.exe";

System.AppDomain app = System.AppDomain.CreateDomain(exe);
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new CultureInfo("en-US");

app.ExecuteAssembly(exe);
}
}

Alex,
I am very sorry, but you are working around a technical limitation of the product.
At this moment, you surely have three teams of highly trained ninja lawyers headed your way.
RUN!
