Spellcheck not working with firefox?


Recommended Posts

It works with Explorer, and I'm pretty sure it used to work with Firefox too, but at some point, it stopped working. Here, at least.

Spell checks works for me no issues.

That would be more helpful if you stated what browser and what operating system you use.

I don't know how much truth there is in the following but I heard one person on TV say the EI should be taken off one computer because they found a security hole and anyone using it now, will have an undetected virus on it and take one's info.

There's a fix for that now.

You cannot take IE off a Windows computer. Windows explorer and Internet explorer are essentially the same thing. It's integrated with the OS and no way to remove it. Not sure about win 8.

:lol: Not using Chrome.

I know what you mean, Chrome's spell checker is about as lame as it gets on it's own but did you try enabling 'ask google for suggestions' in spell checker options? I also added the extension After the Deadline and it seems a lot more functional now. It checks grammar and I don't seem to get the annoying list of goofy dis combobulated suggestions I used to get.

Firefox with ad-block, no other addons or plugins, and Win 7 64.

That's strange because that's what I'm using. Mind you, on my other computer, which uses Windows 8 the spellcheck works fine.
