How do I Change Microsoft Office Online to English?

BB

When I go to Microsoft Office online, or any microsoft.com web page
for that matter, it displays in Chinese, the default language of my
Win 2000 OS. How do I change that website to English? I am
particular interested in changing the display of the Microsoft clip
art gallery.

Try posting this in a Windows group for your operating system - they would
probably have a better idea about how to change the OS language. My guess
would be to use a second language option but they would be better able to
assist.

Thank you, Milly. I'll do that. On another note, I noticed that
you're an Outlook MVP. I'm receiving around 200 spam messages daily.
Outlook 2003 catches all but about a dozen of them, sending them to a
junk mail folder. That's great, but is there any way to catch all of
them? Maybe there is an upgrade to Outlook 2003 that has an updated
spam protection? If not, that's okay. I'm glad to have it work as
good as it does now. Before this, I had almost given up on email, due
to spam.

Check on Office Downloads for 2 updates to Outlook's anti-spam engine. I
would also get SpamBayes for the few that creep through. Works 99.99% of the
time for me.

I could only find one update, but installing that and SpamBayes
certainly made a difference. I remember that I had SpamBayes
installed before upgrading to Office 2003. I made the mistake of
keeping it there through the upgrade and had an extremely difficult
time removing the junk email directory it had set up. So, I was
hesitant about installing it again, but heeded your advice. I'm glad
I did.

Glad it worked for you - that combo is a winner, although Outlook 2003 alone
is pretty darn good.
