Cyrillic index in Contact List

[chrstnj]

I use Outlook 2000 on XP. When I click on "Contacts," the index headings
(alphabet) are in Cyrillic, though my contacts are not! There's a button for
"123," a button for "a-z," and a button for each of the 33 Russian letters.
How can I get the Russian index to disappear? I would rather hit a button
for each of the *English* letters!

I've tried changing the card heading and card body fonts in "Other
Settings," to no avail.

Thanks,
Christine
