Why does top browser bar (one with Firefox logo & minimize/restore/close button) periodically display in Chinese characters?

The top bar on the page - the one that displays the open page URL etc. - always opens in English but periodically changes automatically to Chinese. As far as I can tell, this seems to happen when I have been working with MS Expression Web 3 & publishing to a web site, but this is not for sure.

In the past this issue has been reported as caused by the "RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin" extension (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that shows in your More system details list.
The version that you have installed may still cause that same issue.

Do not confuse the "RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin" extension with the RealPlayer plugin (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) that plays media files.
The extension adds some extra features like saving media files.

You can disable/remove the RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension in the RealPlayer Preferences (RealPlayer: Tools > Preferences > Download & Recording)
