    Hi All

    when I use IE or Firefox on the like of www.google.jp I can only see (where japanese symbols should be) squares with 4 numbers in them

    as opposed to japanese symbols.

    I'm using windows 2000
    is there a pack/add on I can use to view the Japanese symbols?

    A link would be helpful

    regards
    G.

    If you have a copy of Office 2000 or higher you could install the Japanese font or Universal font (under Office Tools > International Support) which will display Japanese characters. I'm sure there's a better way but that's how I do it.

    I think Opera includes them by default, try it.

    Otherwise you can install Asian language support for Windows (see the language toolbar and install it).

    I didn't think Windows 2000 had this feature but you're dead right, just tried it now. It's in Control Panel > Regional Options, on the General tab.
