I installed a spell-checker plugin a while back for firefox. Due to a twitchy mouse-hand, i occasionally add some words to the user dictionary by accident, instead of correcting them (silly menu design places the two items way too close together). Is there a way to edit or reset that user dictionary?
Reinstalling doesn't fix it, nor does uninstalling then reinstalling.|||Your personal dictionary, persdict.dat, seems to be in this directory
In Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Application Data\Mozilla\ Firefox\Profiles\your profile
In Windows Vista:
C:\Users\your username\Appdata\Roaming\Mozilla\ Firefox\Profiles\ your profile
The file seems to be editable with Wordpad.
Hope that helps.|||Uninstall Firefox and this time uncheck the box that says Keep My settings and Add-Ons when you uninstall. Re install Firefox and forget the Spell Checker Add-On. Firefox has a Spell Checker built in.
With Firefox open click Tools and then Options.
On the Advanced Tab under Browsing check the box that says Check my spelling as I type.
