I believe there is a bug in this modification. Try changing it to a language and then changing it once more. It redirects you to altavista.

I Was going to make something very similer, ie, i was going to make one so that language packs translate the topics as well and the forum names, but if you fix the bugs, i wont have to

This isn't a bug unfortunatley it just can translate from the origanal page and not from the translated one.

Trying to figure out why this is happening. I installed it on 3 forums. No, problems with 2 of them but one shows the same problem like yours. Weird!
