For example when composing a message on your yahoo account, "spell check" it offered which check for any misspelled works and then offers suggestion on correct spellings or forms of the word.

If you open your Yahoo account while using Mozilla or Foxfire as the browser the "spell check" feature does not work.  The spell check feature work on Internet Explorer.

I'm assuming that the spellcheck function on Yahoo Mail is something written in Javascript, and that there is probably an error in it.  Yahoo isn't exactly known for trying to make sure that their site works in all browsers.  Did you check the Javascript console when you tried to use spellcheck?
