When Active Worlds starts, it attempts to determine what language version of Microsoft Windows is installed. If it is one of the supported languages, the browser will shift automatically into using that language for menus, dialogs, and most other aspects of the user interface that contain text.

You can change the current language at any time from the Advanced Settings Dialog.
