When I type a search on the Firefox search bar, the results populate in Japanese. I have uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled. I do not have this problem with IE, Google Chrome, or Yahoo search. I am running Windows 7 on a fairly new HP laptop. At first I thought it may have been a virus, but looking at other forums, many posts have said that it is the search engine confusing the IP address. I also have the latest AVG and Windows Defender.
