Yes, I have upgraded to Firefox 2.0

The dictionary you are looking for Ross is 'British English Dictionary'.
On a related note, there is also a 'Russian spell dictionary', although I haven't had a chance to try it out.

I gathered Ilya wouldn't do such a thing, but I know different programs have different presets (Semagic, par exemple, has a UK spellchacker if you download it). It's very annoying at work when you open any document and it's all auto-set to US...
