Today I upgraded my Firefox to the latest version Mac OSX 10.4.11 can support. It is Firefox 3.0.15 and now all text is coming out in Serbian Cyrillic language. It is impossible to work, to read anything and to browse. With the older version of Firefox everything was OK. How to get English language on my browser? I tried to change the language in Preferences but it is OK, it says it is only English there.

Here's a list of v3.0.15 in both en-GB (UK English) and en-US (American version): ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.0.15/mac/

There's also a third party version called TenFourFox which will work with your OS: http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox/

Thank you Xircal! I didn't try it yet, but in a meantime I tied to install other browsers. I installed browser called Camino and reinstalled Safari (which made me troubles before) and it's the same. I have same Cyrillic stuff in all browsers. I live in Serbia (where we use Cyrillic letters), so I think it is some global problem concerning Mac and geographical place where I live. Problem is that I have English text coming up in Cyrillic, so I can't read it. I'll try to ask local Mac dealer or to go to some forums to try solve it (can you give me some tip where to go). In a mean time, I'll try to install this versions that you send me, and let you know is it working. Thanx, Branislav
