Thanks for replying. When I go to MSN.com and type into
the search text box, I just get capital letters and *'s
and brackets and numbers. I know it's trying to input a
language other than English, but it doesn't. Yes the AR
is enabled and has not changed. I don't get any error
messages either. I can type a web address into the IE
via Arabic, but again, can't type anything into the
actual browser window.

Also, I've tried more sites that msn.com, happens the
same on all that I've surfed to.
