Why is my Firefox in Spanish?

The oddest thing....I fired up Firefox just a few minutes ago and the main page is in Spanish. I uninstalled, reinstalled, and it is still in Spanish. How can I get it back to English? Or has the official language of the United States been changed to Spanish/Mexican?

Menu:

Tools | Options

Tab:

Content

...under 'Languages' click 'Choose'

I have no idea why it would switch... unless maybe your Windows settings switched.

Everything else system wise is still in English...including IE7. Just Firefox.

And US English is the only language in the Languages selection window.

Yep, Good_2_Be, that was it. It's tough not having push button internet...this old fashioned rotary internet sometimes causes me problems.

Not sure why it happened, but my home page changed from Google to Google.ES (the Spanish version of the Google home page). My wife was on my system for a while last night looking up stuff that we can't afford to even look at, let alone buy. She might have hit the Go To Google Spanish link.
