spell checker for firefox

does anybody know of a spell checker that will work with mozilla firefox version 1.5.0.1 like iespell works with internet explorer??
i have found that my ie is corupted, and even with the new computer, it will not work on some sites, fte being the main one. i have been looking for 3 days now, but can't seem to find anything that will work.

I don't use the Windows box for internet surfing, so I'm just reciting what I've heard from others, but I believe if you download the Google toolbar, it incorporates some sort of spell checker.

I installed the google toolbar. I know that there is already a search bar there, but the toolbar gives you spell check along with some other good features.

Install the Google toolbar for Firefox, it has a built in spell checker.
It will check any web form.

why can't they just make something that works with everything, and you don't need a 5,000 page manual to read to make it work

same reasons chevy parts don't work on a ford. Ford woudn't make as much money, and some people don't want crappy chevy parts on their ford.
