I am using Firefox browser and already upgraded to the latest 5.0. While using my yahoo mail all words are underlined in red(it is happening as I write this note). How do I stop this from happening and have just he mispelled words underlined? When the email is sent the underline goes away.

Do you have a dictionary installed and selected?

  • You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.
  • Open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one.
  • Make sure that [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu is check-marked.

You can enable or disable spell checking globally:

  • Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Browsing: "Check my spelling as I type"

You can look here for dictionaries:

Thank you so, so, so much. You were dead on!!

This was driving me nuts. It seems the dictionary chosen was Russian which I wanted to install at one point but never thought I did. I have corrected it and now all is okay.

Cheers, Marc

Thank you so much. I had the same problem, most notably in Yahoo mail so the: 

 "You can enable or disable spell checking globally:
   Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Browsing: "Check my spelling as I type"

was the answer for me! thanks
