It comes with. Go to Tools at the top of your screen. Then click on Options. In the window that comes up, click on Advanced, and select the General tab. Look under Browsing, and check the last box. It says something about allowing spell checking. Ask me how I know!

Has Spell Check Been Disabled Here?

Amcour, If that's true, why is it not on my home computer (with Firefox) but the misspellings (my intentional 'useddddd') but on my work computer - it's the same browser - Firefox. Norma, If I understand you correctly (anyone's guess there), yes, Ma'am. Karen, It is a form of browser spellchecker - many typos go through unflagged because they, as you well know, are themselves words, just not the correct ones. When I've actually misspelled a word here (see 'wwrrdd' but not 'hear'), the word's underlined in red.

I have no idea. I've had spell check for a while, 6 months maybe. I never asked for it. Just appeared. I updated to the latest version this week and don't notice anything different.I don't see Googlepack (have no idea what that is). FF looks and acts completely the same as it always has. The features they are talking about must be something you add yourself. It didn't come on mine. Sorry I can't help about spell-check. Jane Jane

iespell will work for your typing into the reply boxes here and other places on line that you would need it to. It should have put a little iespell icon on your browser toolbar. I never use IE anymore but I have used IEspell for years back when I did. What version of IE are you using? click up top on help then about IE and it will tell you the version. You might try Speckie add on. this might be helpful Add Spell Checking to Internet Explorer 9

Hey, Joann, I love that spell check, but only when I type in English. When typing in German, it underlines just about everything. LOL

Browsing is almost half way down the "window" of the General tab. Look down!
