There is also a rather good one\* at [www.easypeasy.com](http://www.easypeasy.com) it won’t let me link directly to the anagram page, but you can get there from the drop-down ‘what are you looking for’ box.

\*I used it to assist in the creation of some of the posts in [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?&threadid=184325) thread.
