Here you have =)

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html Download the english version.

thanks for the suggestion. The same problem is occurring using those links too however, still unresolved. I did however dredge up an old install file of firefox Vrs 2 off another of my hard drives which installs in English, could this be a new bug for the new update?

Maybe, the servers are redirecting you to the chinese version without a warning...

Well, then download it from this official mirror: http://download.cnet.com/mozilla-firefox/?tag=mncol

=)

Did you uninstall the Chinese Firefox version? If not then it is possible that you still have the Chinese language pack on your computer in the chrome folder in the Firefox program folder.

You may need to (re)set the pref "general.useragent.locale" to the preferred language (e.g. "en-US" or "en-GB") on the about:config page. You can open the about:config page via the location bar, like you open a web site. Use the Filter bar at the top of that page to quickly locate the pref.

Still getting the same problem using your new link Riony.

Cor-el, yes I did uninstall. using the config page I can see both locale and general.useragent.locale are set to en-US

Time zones are set to China but all language items seem to be en-US and all time sections are China standard time.

Curiouser and curiouser

same for me :(
