k thx 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2006 The language is set up as English, it just thinks I'm based in France. Maybe it's getting confused by my IP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Princess Leena Report post Posted July 29, 2006 It shouldn't be, unless you're using proxies. Or you goofed around with your geographical settings in Windows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe it's getting confused by my IP. To check your Regional Settings, click Start, then point to Settings, and then Control Panel. On the Control Panel, double-click on Regional and Language Settings. That's the directions for Windows 2000. For Windows XP, skip "point to Settings," and click on the Control Panel.
