Language change on Mountain Lion interface

Hi all,


This problem has been happening for a while and I have no idea why.


Sometimes when I'm prompted to enter an administrative password

the instructions are partially in another language. Seems to be Japanese.

(see attached)


I've repaired permissions often since this problem started and it's never

corrected itself.


Any help appreciated — Cheers, Ben.

Go to system preferences/language & text/language and use the Edit button to uncheck the box for Japanese and then restart. It's a bug.
