How can I disable Japanese in Outlook (or in Office)?
I recently go an email from Japan. On the screen were instructions on how to
enable me to get Japanese characters in Outlook (or Office). I followed them, and was able to get the email. But now I get constant spam in Japanese. I don't get much spam otherwise, just all this Japanese spam that started when I enabled Japanese. I can't figure out how to disable Japanese. I don't want it anymore! Thanks! |

You can deal with the encoding issue through Tools Options, but that won't
do anything about the spam except make it unreadable. My guess is that the 'instructions' you followed to enable the Japanese characters were actually putting you on one or more Japanese spam lists. Sadly, there's no way to put the toothpaste back into the tube other than discarding your email address. "dogwoodpark" wrote in message ... I recently go an email from Japan.

I went to Outlook and tried Tools Options but found nothing that would let
me remove the Japanese option. I also tried doing this in Word, but still couldn't find it. Could you give more details on where to go and what tab to choose when I get there? Thanks!

On your Start menu, choose Programs and navigate to your version of Office.
Look for Microsoft Office Tools and Microsoft Office version Language Settings. In the Language Settings dialog, disable support for Japanese. -- Suzanne S.
