Spell check..
I had a program on my old computer where I would right click the mouse on the post to check the spelling..
I have tried to find the same one for this POS but no luck..
Anyone have a link for what I am looking for..

Do you really find this?
I have held off Chrome because I REALLY like FF and have quite a few (some paid) add-ons that I am very used to.

I agree 100%. Chrome loads ten times faster than IE and Mozilla. Spell Check is built in and you can right click on a word and add it to the dictionary.

Similar, it underlines the word you right click it to pick the right word or add it to your dictionary.
Google Chrome Download

Firefox started running very slow for me so I went to Chrome.
Spell check will underline a misspelled word in red.

Have you updated to the latest version of Firefox? I have Chrome and Firefox and I don't see any difference speed wise. But I like Firefox's add-ons. Their spell check works great.
