Just type http://www.google.com/ncr
in your browser and google will set a cookie to indicate you'll always want the English version (for both the Mozilla/firefox one as well as the original google one) #4Posted 2005-08-03 08:43:15 monty, on 2005-08-03 08:39:30, said: Just type http://www.google.com/ncr in your browser and google will set a cookie to indicate you'll always want the English version (for both the Mozilla/firefox one as well as the original google one) #5Posted 2005-08-03 08:54:40

If you go to "tools" then "options" and then on the left hand side you choose "general"...
In Homepage you just put the google link I provided above... Firefox wil always start on the English google version #8Posted 2005-08-03 20:11:54
Google tried to set a cookie on your PC when you clicked the link to English on the Thai Google page.
Now if you are one of the paranoid people who switched of cookies then google does not know that you want English, and gives you Thai, everytime when you come in from a Thai IP address. If you do not like that, enable cookies, at least for cookies from google, and make sure the google cookies are not explicitely blocked. #9Posted 2005-08-03 20:56:22 monty, on 2005-08-03 08:39:30, said: Just type http://www.google.com/ncr in your browser and google will set a cookie to indicate you'll always want the English version (for both the Mozilla/firefox one as well as the original google one) Once I did what was suggested above it cleared the Thai and put everything in English. I have since restarted my computer and it is still working in English. Thanks for the help.
