Freelang Dictionary: new installation routine
We have changed the way the dictionary installs itself on a computer, and we are happy to announce that it is now 100% compatible with Windows Vista. There is also an uninstall option, so if you want to remove Freelang dictionary from your system, you can do it by using the Add/remove programs option in Windows Control panel.
In the case of dictionaries using special fonts, like Armenian, Esperanto, Macedonian or Vietnamese, the fonts are now installed automatically.
It is only the installation that has been modified, not the program itself. So if you already downloaded and installed the program, you don’t need to do it again. If you are using Vista and experiencing trouble, though, like you can’t reverse the word lists, we recommend that you download the new installation files.
The dictionary updates will now resume normally. I would like to thank the authors for their patience, especially Renato Figueiredo. Many thanks also to Jordan Russell for developing Inno Setup Compiler and keeping it free and alive.

Thanks for the updates of Danish and Sami. I’m anxious to see the new dicts and its pages. I glad, I won’t need to download all dictionaries again, even why, I still don’t use vist in my computer. Good work for you, and all collaborators of Freelang (including me of course) new updates and dicts will go soon to you. Nice week.

Hi guys!
You should make a Firefox extension for this! Just highlight a word on a page, e.g with a double click and get at simple and clean box with definitions (language or other) set by the user. The database is stored locally, so response would be quick.
Hope you consider it!
Anyways, keep up the good work
