Living in France how prevent /frweb pages autoreplacing english pages?
Although I live in France and can speak French I resent having English Language web pages automatically replaced with a /fr version in French. How can I prevent this?

The website probably redirects you because of your location (France) regardless of your language settings.
You could try to turn geolocation off, that might help:
- In the URL bar, type about:config
- Type geo.enabled
- Double click on the geo.enabled preference
- Location-Aware Browsing is now disabled
In the meantime, you can navigate directly to the US version of Norton's website: http://us.norton.com/

Hello,
- Type about:preferences#content in the address bar and press Enter.
- You'll see a section called 'Languages'
- There you'll find a button called 'Choose' that allows you to change/add display languages of websites
- Click that button and add English (if it isn't yet in the list) and move it to the top, that way pages will be shown in English whenever possible.
I hope this answers your question.
I have already specified English in my language preference. This does not help the following problem. I type URL norton.com The browser redirects me to URL fr.norton.com showing a page in french. I want to get to the US website and read in original home language English, not even a translation

Thank you, Gert - for the response and the quick and competent service. . The geo location tip works! At least for Norton, but I am sure all other occurences. Regards, Chris
