Every time I go to googles home page I get the Spanish version. When I go to the preferences there is no option for English. If I do google earth or community it's English. In the preferences I have various countries options to include Hacker, Elmer Fud, Klingon and other weird ones.
Anybody else?
Works fine for me, directs me to the finnish language if I go to Google.com. Tho, I have them weird languages aswell, maybe something that google has added itself?
works fine for me too
Always the Greek version.
Have you tired to put the country code of your country, like
google.gr
Google.ca working fine here. Those goofy languages like Klingon have been there for a few years. Try them out, especially the Swedish Chef one, that can be pretty funny.

Go to TOOLS then INTERNET OPTIONS.
Delete browsing history, which will also clear any and all cookies, etc.
Close the browser. Re-open and go back to www.google.com (http://www.google.com) and see if it does the same thing.
BTW, I just went there, yes, you can do bork! bork! bork! and it'll do the sveedish chef from the muppets text in there. Start there and head down the engleesh. Click on it, save preferences and it should be ok after that.
BTW Klingon is a hoot!

Just got off Google and mine works fine. Never have any trouble with it.

My Google.com.au is fine. I see no foreign language but I think I did once end up on another country's google yesterday.
Edit: Aah, wait a min, I've re-read this thread and checked my google.com.au's preference. We've got 'em too.
