wfm using build 2002042219 on Win2k set to 'fr'.
Reporter, what language pref is set for Mozilla (Prefs -> Navigator -> Languages) ?
Does the problem still occur after emptying your cache ?

[Kai Lahmann (is there, where MNG is)]

Aquiles Cohen, can you try it again? This sounds like a broken server to me

Comment 3

[Darin Fisher]

that error dialog occurs when there is a DNS failure.  i suspect your internet
connection is/was having problems and/or the server is/was down ;-)

please reopen if you can confirm otherwise.
