Chosen solution

Some sites automatically redirect you to a site in the local language. There is usually a link on such websites choose a language or go to an international version that allows to chose the language. .... If the Google (Firefox) or Yahoo home page is in the wrong language then see: Google: http://www.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=873 Yahoo: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/homepage/troubleshooting/troubleshoot-02.html

I am in Turkey. I have my default homepage set to US Google, and my languages in the Firefox internet preferences set to US English. But I still get pages in Turkish, such as Myspace. Is there anything I can do to force all searches to result in English language pages?
