Hi John

I am using Windows XP Pro. I have loaded an Internet
browser application probably developed for the chinese
environment. All non-english characters became garbages.
what can I do?

You might try this first:

Language change:

Open Explorer
Click on Tools (on toolbar)
Select Internet Options
Select General tab
Click on Languages tab
Click on Add
Scroll down the list of languages and select your language.
Click OK
Ok again
Ok to close Internet Options

If this does not work then:

It is possible you may have parasites, spyware, adware or
malware on your system causing the problem. Download
and install, you *must* update the programs prior to running to
be sure they have the latest definitions, then run the programs
below. They are free and very effective.Be sure to run both
SpyBot and Adaware, as what one does not detect the other
may. It is important that you follow all directions carefully:

SpyBot Search & Destroy: Free
