...one of my roommates friend's changed something on Internet Explorer, and now everything is in Chinese (or Japanese or whatever the hell it is, but it sure ain't English). Anyone know how I can fix it? Thanks
This would seem to be either an encoding or languages issue. If it's encoding you want to go to View->Encoding and then select one of the Western European options. If it's languages you want to go to Tools->Internet Options and then click on the languages button.
