I am having a problem with some popup tabs, and web sites thats not in english
I really like FireFox however, I am having a problem with some popup tabs and sites. I use English in my browser and for some reason when I would go to another site, It would be in another language. or I would sometimes get popups in-which I can't read the language. how can I change my setting or correct this problem.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.
