Is it possible to write a greasemonkey script or FF add-on to have the online
scrabble dictionary
default to exact matches only? It's sooooooo annoying to have to select the radio box every time!

Yes...should be a very easy Greasemonkey script. I'd write it for you but I have a Firefox beta running now with a metric ton of tabs open and I don't have the monkey installed in this instance.

You look away for 2 minutes to write a script and mmascolino comes along..
Alternatively grab
this
and stick it in
/usr/share/firefox/searchplugins [ubuntu]
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins [Windows]
Somewhere else [Mac]
and it will be a custom search engine in FF search engine bar
