Hello,

When I read my Gmail messages I sometimes want to switch the text direction as the message is written in a 'Right to Left' language. So I right-click the mouse and choose 'Switch Direction'. However, when I want to switch back to the 'Left to Right' status the Gmail doesn't switch back, and I have to log-out and -in again to the account in order for the problem to get resolved. It used to be OK, until few weeks ago and something has happened. The only change I did was installing Win7 Ultimate 64bit, does it have anything to do with it?

Thanks! Eran
