Drag the green Download Now button from this webpage and drop it onto Tools/Add-ons/Extensions in TB to begin the installation. It will appear under Tools/Ad-ons/Dictionaries. Choose the default spellcheck dictionary in Tools/Options/Composition/Spelling.

I tried to download the 'French spelling dictionary' via the browser as frepie had done, but got the same result. Despite it saying it was for thunderbird, it would only want to apply to firefox.
