How to keep firefox from redirecting to county specific websites?
I live in Korea and whenever I go to a website that has an US version and a Korea version, like products that are sold in the US and Korea, Firefox automatically redirects me to the Korea website. For example, this time I used this website: burtsbees.com it automatically redirects me to burtsbeeskorea.co.kr, It is not just this website but others as well.
How can I keep this from happening.

Hello Jon.
You can go into Tools > Options > Content > Languages to select your preferred languages, but if a site redirects to country specific language based on your IP address, I think there is no way to prevent it. Except maybe some extension, but it will most likely be site specific (like Google, for example). You can search at addons.mozilla.org.
Sites usually have a link to go to an international page or select a language. Such settings are stored in a cookie that you must keep by making an allow exception. Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions"
