But Earthlink is not exactly Microsoft, the source of your original complaint. Why should an American company in Georgia whose network doesn't even cover all of the US provide you with UK English?

      I found UK English in IE and Firefox, but the Earthlink webmail is US

The only ones who are "forced" to use American English are those who
don't read all the instructions.  <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/118507>

Of course!  I would love to have an Oxford English spell checker.  I
keep getting error underlining when I use "realise" instead of
"realize".  Another example of Microsoft forcing American culture
down our throats.

Speaking of which, I'm working on a rant about a significant omission
in American culture.
