Hi..I recently encountered a really strange problem on my PowerBook G4.



After downloading the new firefox update, all my web browsers (Safari & Firefox), display nearly all my sites in cyrillic (strangely and luckily enough, this isnt one of them)

Of course i checked my system settings and all is set in german (I'm german, so thats ok )



Anyone come across that problem? I dont want to format if theres another solution, obviiously....



Cheers.



PS: heres n example of a part of a page:



OOOkkkaayyy...gets stranger: I just wanted to paste copy part of a page, and after pasting the text was displayed correctly in this window.....?????

PPS: Upon further research: problem only seems to happen with german language sites...

    Additional InfO: gets stranger and stranger...ok, so its only normal fonts that are displayed incorrectly...bold and itals are fine for some obscure reason....

    Thx for the help!

    Try going up to VIEW, TEXT ENCODING and trying some of the ones there. I deal with Japanese sites a lot and sometimes need to switch settings to make them appear correctly.
