Since I paid for the program and installed Firefox 4 translations do not work.

Daily I write to support but I get NO ANSWER!

Lingoes worked for 2 hours, then this help finished too... .

Select the word you want to translate in Firefox 4 and instead of right-click+ctrl use the F10 key. Babylon will recognize the word and show you the translation.

I have found that turning Cleartype off ('cttune'), Babylon works again -- but the fonts in Firefox then look very spindly. Any fix for the latter?
