how do I remove the Inline spell-check permanently?
I am finding the Inline spell-check of Firefox really annoying because it seems to find every word of the English language as incorrect. I have worked out that by right-clicking a text box and deselecting "Check Spelling" that it will then leave that particular text box alone, but I seem to be required to do that for every text box I type in. So I was wondering if there is a way of removing the spell-check on a more permanent basis?
