When using the following two Items and because of the Mozilla /Firefox name appears on top of page I am assuming that there are part of the system.

1. Spell check; is very poor if this a function of Firefox. It needs to be updated, or replaced with one that works even on the simplest words, it has to be the best.

2. Printing from the web; my name appears on top of the pages. How do I remove this, if this is a function of Firefox. Thank you

Spell Check works fine (although very basic) once you know how to use it, and install a dictionary, if your localization doesn't come with a dictionary - en-US and fr-FR come with the appropriate dictionary.

Or try SpellBound.

Firefox button > Print -> Page Setup --> Margins / Headers & Footers
At the bottom is where you can set what Firefox prints in headers and footers. The users name isn't an option - so that is coming from somewhere other than Firefox.
