Why is login page (to register to use this forum) and other pages displaying foreign characters (e.g., বাংলা (বাংলাদেশ) when am using English (U.S.) versions of IE6 & Opera 10.6 to contact you (as FF4 hanging computer)?

FF4 hanging badly, so used IE6 & Opera 10.63 to register with & access Mozilla support site. Some words on those pages displayed in a foreign language (Arabic script?? )-- example, বাংলা (বাংলাদেশ)

 Foreign characters on initial Support registration page, were in lieu of English words asking to select UserID & Password. (Page not entirely in foreign language--only parts.  Request to repeat password choice, enter email, were in English).  
 I registered (guessing what to enter). Went to Support page [support.mozilla.com/bn-BD/kb/ask].  Greeted by statement:  "Our volunteers haven't translated this article into বাংলা (বাংলাদেশ) yet."

No idea what language that is, or why u think I can read it. Presently logged in from U.S.

That is Bengali (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html). Firefox 4 no longer has the language setting in the user agent and in your case it doesn't seem to work to detect the language.

You can change the bn-BD in the link(s) to en-US on the Mozilla sites.
