Hello, I'm Traveling a lot and every time i'm in a non English speaking country, many of the web pages are shown in the local language.

I've tried to change the settings but it stayed the same. Please help.

Thank you, Guy

Some sites automatically redirect you to a site in the local language, based on where your IP locates you. You can check the installed Languages: Tools > Options > Content > Languages There is usually a link on such websites choose a language or go to an international version that allows to chose the language.

There is not much to do about this apart from using an anonymous proxy that gives you an IP located in an English speaking country or otherwise make sure to keep the same IP and not one that locates you in that country.
