For Google, try www.google.com/ncr

NCR stands for No Country Redirect.

For MSN:

You can change the language options for Internet Explorer by clicking onTools at the top of the browser and selecting "Internet options." Click the "Languages" button at the bottom of the "General" tab. Then click the "Add" button and select the "English (United States) [en-US]" option. Click "OK." Click any Spanish listing in the "Language" box and click the "Remove" button. Click "OK." Confirm and save all of your changes by clicking the "OK" button on the "Internet Options" menu to save all of your changes.


Also, read back HERE.

For MSN, have you tried the language settings on the site itself?

How's Google now?

For Google, type www.google.com/ncr. Also set it as your homepage or default search engine. I had already told you how to do this in the old thread.
