Default Wordpad: Which fonts are mono-spaced?

Finding a font with all the properties you want is a PIA. Sorting on an
important property like monospacing is impossible in windows explorer. One
monospaced font that often works for me is Lucinda Console. It is available
here if not already on your computer:

Some websites mention monospaced fonts in Wordpad that I don't have.
Courier and some other ones (that I have) are so fine that its hard to
read. Also the difference between Bold and Normal is almost
indistinguishable. In non-monospaced fonts there's a clear difference in
Bold and non-Bold type. Any suggestions for a "thicker" monospaced font?
Also, I'm writing this from Windows Live Mail and its not allowing me to
add words to the dictionary when I right click a word that has the red
line underneath it. There is so much computer slang I want to add. And
does anybody know where this dictionary is so I can back it up?
