Problems with Firefox v1.5 ?
Some people have reported that since upgrading to Firefox 1.5 that Spellbound
no longer works. However a bit of googling around sorted this problem
for me and I list below the steps to get Spellbound working with FF
1.5.x
Step 1.
First of all if you had a previous version of Spellbound installed on an
older version of FF then you need to uninstall this from your FF extensions.
Tools >>
Extensions >>
Uninstall Spellbound.
Step 2.
Install the dev version of Spellbound from:
http://exchangecode.com/spellbound/downloads/spellbound-dev_20060108.xpi
You will need to allow the site security preferences.
Step 3.
Install the custom dictionary you require from:
http://dictionaries.mozdev.org/installation.html
Close and restart Firefox
Step 4.
Add the Spellbound button to your FF Toolbar
Right click the tool bar >>
Customise >>
Drag the icon to your toolbar.

Step 5.
The first time you use Spellbound you will need to select the dictionary
that you installed.
