Thanks everyone, I look forward to the invasion / takeover Albecht, Primary, and only, language on the mac is English. The only reason I can think of as to why it's displaying in French in some parts is the reason Oliver gave, infiltration by language in preparation for a takeover. I'm running 10.6.6 on a 24" iMac.
