Translate

I was disappointed a few weeks ago when a Dell tech informed me that there was an "issue" with my google toolbar and that they'd have to disable it to "fix" the slowdown problem I was having.
Tonight I accidently discovered something that works like a million dollars and that I've never heard of though I've asked dozens of people:
put the cursor on the text and right click-a whole list will come up-one of which is "Translate with Live Search"-click on it. My computer uses Vista but this may work with any microsoft system. I tried it with the Hydroptere site and the French "Foilers" site and it worked perfectly.
Hope it works for you if you need translation!

No, it only works with Vista and Win-7 with live search installed.

I disabled it because "live search" wastes a good deal of my 2 Gb data contract, even if there is nothing to search for. It sort of masturbates using 10-15 Mb per hour.
You probably have flat rate so that's not your concern.

If you type "translate ________" on the search bar it will give several good answers.
