Firefox has always come up in English - which is what I want. Last night, for no reason, Google came up in Spanish. I have re-installed Firefox and Google still comes up in Spanish. If I use Explorer or Chrome, Google comes up in English.

Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?

Then restart.
