You're very welcome.

Yep, I can't speak for v1.0.1 since I don't have it yet.

Have you posted your problem with SpellBound yet in
the Firefox Support Forum?

Also, do a Forum Search there and see what others have
encountered with SpellBound. If I come across something
that might help I'll post back here.

Also, here's a way
to contact the developers as a last resort.

I see when I go to Firefox>Tools>Options>Advanced>Software Update that the Auto-Update for v1.0.1 is available to me (I'm tempted to give it a try).
Also, you can check for Updates for Extensions and Themes.

Just a suggestion...see if that will automatically update your SpellBound since it will recognize that you have v1.0.1.

Yes, I tried the update feature for Extensions and Themes and no updates were available. I originally removed v1.0 through the Add/Remove Programs but didn't delete any remaining Firefox entrie before I installed v1.0.1. A couple of hours I decided to do a complete clean install this time. I removed v1.0.1 through Add/Remove Programs and then did a search with a registry cleaner for all Mozilla Firefox entries and deleted everything associated with it. I installed v1.0.1 again and still SpellBound will install but remains disabled. So I'll just wait until they come up with a fix for this before I try anything else.

I did send a message to the SpellBound developers and will let you know if they reply.

If you do try to install v1.0.1 let me know how your SpellBound is working out.

Ok, let's see what advice you get from the developers....it seems as if you've
done all you can to load SpellBound...but, there is a piece to the puzzle missing.

As far as my updating to v1.0.1. probably won't do it until the weekend.
Just as you are spending a lot of time on just one extension, it would take
hours of dedication for me to recover any of my extensions that might not
work with the update along with any other problems I might encounter.
On the other hand, it may install problem free.
So, that's my dilemma.
I can't relax if I have issues with my computer until I can get them resolved.

I'll post back here with the results once I get the update.

The developers responded quite rapidly and asked if I had followed all 4 steps provided in the SpellBound Installation link. 1st - Install SpellBound Extension 2nd - Install the windows spell check libraries 3rd - Install a dictionary from dictionaries.mozdev.org and 4th - Restart Firefox.

After following these 4 steps, SpellBound is now working. Even though you install 3 items only SpellBound will appear in the extension manager. Seems like a lot of details to get 1 extension to work but so far it's working fine.

WOW! What a pleasant surprise that they responded so quickly....kudos to them.

Good to know that you got it working.

Which of those four steps do you think was missed that did not allow for the
install? Must be one of the Libraries or Dictionaries?

Thanks for letting me know the good news.

Yeah, I missed the windows spell check libraries. It's definitely strange as the developers provide you with the 3 pieces but they haven't found a way to put the pieces together into one file like they did for Firefox 1.0. I wonder what changes in v1.0.1 is causing this situation with SpellBound?

I have had no problems with version 1.01 and spellcheck. As a matter of fact, I had a pleasent suprise with a feature that I never knew Firefox had. I noticed a new icon in the upper right hand corner just under the "restore down" icon. When I placed the cursor over it, it notified me that there was an update for spellcheck. I clicked on the icon and updated without any problem.
