I just upgraded to the new Firefox 25, I hate it at this point. No Spellcheck in right click menu! Takes forever to load a page, it keeps getting hung up. Popup blocker doesn't seem to work, I'm getting adds on every page when I add any addon!

Is there still a dictionary installed and enabled?

Current Firefox versions hide Check Spelling in the right-click context menu of a text area if the web page disables the spelling check via a spellcheck="false" attribute of this element.
You can right-click in the text editor area and use "Inspect Element" to see if this text area has a spellcheck="false" attribute.

Removing this spellcheck="false" attribute by selecting it via a double-click and using the Delete or Backspace key should make the Check Spelling item in the right-click context menu reappear.
