Can't disable auto spell check
Tried disabling auto spell check per instructions. Still there.
Chosen solution
Assuming that in Options => General, under 'Language' you have unchecked 'Check your spelling as you type' (?)
Would you try this please :
Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)
Type in the search bar :
layout.spellcheckDefault
and make sure that its value is set to 0 (= zero)
(If you have to change the value, then close and restart Firefox afterwards)

Disabling automatic spell-checking
By default, Firefox is configured to automatically check spelling. You can turn it off in the Options window:
Click the menu button Fx57Menu and choose Options. In the General panel, go to the Language section. Uncheck Check your spelling as you type.
spellcheck 57
Close the about:preferences page. Any changes you've made will automatically be saved.
