The newest Firefox has some really useful plug-ins like a dictionary. Highlight a word and right click and one of the options is "define the highlighted word". Really helps those who are old and slow in addition to being as poor a spaller such as me.
For those of you with the new Firefox, add the plug-in extension and then right click on spellar.

Head over to Internet for people, not profit Mozilla and you'll find all the information.
Trust me it's easy and painless.

Just let me know what I can do. I forgot to mention that I usually have the Avant browser available as well.
