I've gotten spoiled at how good Firefox spell checker is.

Odd, I can’t stand the FF spellchecker. It seems like it never comes up with the right word for me. Often, I find myself trying to respell the word just to get the spell checker to give me new suggestions.

In fact, just a few months ago, I posted this:

@Joey_P

Is there a better Spell Check for Firefox? The one that came with it is terrible. Often times the words it chooses to replace the incorrect word aren’t even close to being correct and I end up either using Google to find the correct spelling (and then cut and pasting it in) or attempt to spell the word incorrectly differently hoping it’ll come up with the right spelling. I’m using FF 3.6 if that makes a difference which brings me to…

For example, if I type delema it gives me:
delegate
delete
Deleon
Delmar

But not dilemma.

Type delema…what to you get for suggestions? I only ask because, as of now, and I don’t know if it’s due to an update or something else, I’m getting:
Madelena
Madelle
Madelene
Madelle
But again, it still couldn’t figure out that I was looking for dilemma. Sometimes I just end up going to Google, copy/pasting the wrong word so I can copy and paste the “Did You Mean” word that it gives me back which is almost always the word I’m looking for.
