i found out that the google language is set to chr (http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=chr)
i searched around and found that (accordingly to http://whatsmyuseragent.com/) my user agent is Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; it; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101206 Ubuntu/10.10 (maverick) Firefox/3.6.13 but, looking in the full header i found: HTTP_CONNECTION:keep-alive HTTP_KEEP_ALIVE:115 HTTP_ACCEPT:text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET:ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING:gzip,deflate HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE:chrome://global/locale/intl.properties HTTP_HOST:whatsmyuseragent.com HTTP_REFERER:http://www.google.it/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&sqi=2&ved=0CBwQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwhatsmyuseragent.com%2F&rct=j&q=my%20user%20agent&ei=tWMDTe39CtP54gaa0O2KCg&usg=AFQjCNHwNrQKiEOku6D-Wt7LOJr9pkejaA&sig2=38xD1ys6-bx2OZLwp8axPw HTTP_USER_AGENT:Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; it; rv:1.9.2.13) Gecko/20101206 Ubuntu/10.10 (maverick) Firefox/3.6.13 I personally think that the relevant part is HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE:chrome://global/locale/intl.properties, whose first characters are "chr", maybe this string is not well interpreted by google. These are my guess, i really don't know nothing about those things so i'd probably be wrong... Please, consider help me with this bug.
