Hey Trev,

I tried using google.us to avoid going to google.nl (which would show different search results) but I don't think I've gotten the same results as you (they still try to give me geographically-relevant searches, and I'm in the Netherlands). Fifth result is Re: fluxbox: msg#00027 blinux-list and that is also the tag info, not ubuntu and orca. On either side are unlikely candidates: "Fluxbox menu example launching multiple programs with single click ..." and "Free fluxbox theme Download" and I looked for the headers of the Blinux page, poorly written and the h1 had the same as the title. <br> <br>Funnily enough if you copy-pasta'd what you heard, I see this letter à which seems to be the letter 9 in Punjabi) but when I hit reply, the mail program translates it as "2 6 7 1" which is http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2671/index.htm some sort of cross. Certainly neither make sense in a title with "Ubuntu" and "orca" in it. <br> <br>First result for Fluxbox and Orca though is a Japanese site which does have ubuntuçorcaããããããææ(fluxbox) - wal-nekoãæè in the title (wal-neko is the site name...) but that's a totally different character and is charset=euc-jp. And likely not the site you mean. <br> <br>Orca reads out different numbers for the Punjabi 9 when I listen to it in my mail program. "letter a6f". <br> <br>-Mallory <br> <br> <br>Hello, <br><br> <br><br>OkIhadsotimetofiddlewiththis somemore. <br><br>I can confirm that I have this problem in iceweasel 3.5.6, stock mozilla 3.5.6, and 3.6rc.a simplerexampleofthisproblemcanbeseenbydoingthefollowing. <br><br>google the terms "fluxbox" and "orca"., and go tothefifthresult. <br><br>This result should hae something to do with ubuntu and orca, it should also be read strangely with symbol things in it. <br><br>I did this with lynx and got "ubuntu੯orca"... for the heading. <br><br> <br><br>thanks <br><br>Trev <br><br></BLOCKQUOTE>
