I live in Japan, have bought a Japanese laptop and loaded up Windows Ultimate to have displays in English. I want to install Firefox but when doing this it installs the Japanese version. How do I get Firefox in English please?

The Firefox you posted here with is the en-US version of Firefox.

Is your problem with the web pages that you are loading?
