    Have a look at your regional and language settings (Control Panel) and make sure they are set to British English.
    You may need to reboot the PC to enable the new settings.
    That gum you like is coming back in style.

    If you ever have to restore your pc to factory settings, set your language to United Kingdom: English in the Windows XP setup, that way you wont have this problem
