I just installed Firefox last night and the home page is in a foreign language. I cannot use it to navigate, as I cannot read the language.

You have the Hindi version installed, you can get the English version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html

Thank you! That worked for all but the search bar. It is still titled in that other language. But at least now I can function! Thanks so much!

You can try to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the Firefox Profile Folder

You can also try to reset the defaults:

  1. Left-click the search engines icon on the search bar
  2. Open "Manage Search Engines"
  3. Click "Restore Defaults"

Look here for search engines: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/
