What do you mean by translating non English web pages into other languages?

If you use Monolingual to remove non English languages from applications you will still be able to see foreign language web pages in their original language.

However, Monolingual can be troublesome. A good example of it causing problems is if you use Office 2008 and try to apply updates after using Monolingual. Office 2008 will refuse to update and must be completely removed and reinstalled in order for updates to be applied.

I no longer use Monolingual. With today's large hard drives how much space are you really saving by using it? IMO, it's not worth it.

Regards.

Thanks for that, sorry about the mis-wording - i may as well leave it i guess but my new mac book only came with 160 Gb HD - i do however have an external 500 Gb HD so i guess wha you're saying makes sense.
Cheers
