I found when I checked my cookies I had two entries under Google one http://google.co.uk (English) and another http://Google.co.th (Thai) I deleted the Thai cookies and we're all cool and the gang now. |

Obviously Google no longer cares enough to fix this issue for English speakers living in foreign countries. I am switching to the AVG Search engine : http://search.avg.com/ which seems to give good results and gives them in ENGLISH! Goodbye Google |

1:51 AM Edit Weird. So many solutions. Why can't Google just store the script of a google account's default language along with the account settings anyway? It's like: def_lang=ENG I'm being sarcastic there. But the idea, I'm pushing. Storing the |
