Hi All, ;)

Just a quick note on this extension, which is truly invaluable Dictionary Search 0.9.2 (https://addons.update.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&category=Search%20Tools&numpg=10&id=68)

If anyone has any issues with the settings setup here are the fields you'll need to fill in the fields for these web resources. The Text field simply is the text you'll see for the right-click context menu, so you can title it as you wish.

Dictionary.com
Text: Search Dictionary for "$"
Access Key: D
URL: http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=$

Thesaurus.com
Text: Search Thesaurus for "$"
Access Key: T
URL: http://thesaurus.reference.com/search?r=2&q=$

Wikipedia.com

Access Key: W
URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/$

TheFreeDictionary.com

Access Key: D

to get to these options you need to open Extensions from Tools, then double-click DictionarySearch.
