Firefox spellcheck?

Options
I've got the latest version of Firefox and was very happy with the online spellchecker but for some reason it has stopped working. I have ticked the box which turns it on and it says it's on but for amoe reason it has stopped working.

Any ideas ?

    I may just have found out what the problem is. It seems that version 2.0.0.3 which is the one I recently installed does not support english spellcheck so I've had to download the Australian version ! How bizarre. See here

    I love the spellcheck feature! its great!... still running 2.0.0.2 here... if it aint broke, dont fix it ;)
    ... although it probably means my FF is less secure and my PC's vulnerable to something you're all protected against :S

    I'm using 2.0.0.3 and spell check seems to be fine. It's using using British English dictionary 1.19.
