Sorry it has been forever since I worked on this, I have corrected the url and the Widget seems to be working fine now. Going to do a few more things to it and I will update it on the
Deviantart page sometime today.

Seems some text is not displaying I'm not sure if it is my computer of the widget. It shows nothing for Russian, Japanese, Greek, Korean, Chinese (Simplified or Traditional) is there language files I need to install? I really don't remember it has been so long but I think I went to Microsoft and installed some language packs anybody know?

I need someone to test this on xp. it works on the Macintosh but on my system the Russian, Japanese, Greek, Korean, Chinese (Simplified or Traditional) translations do not appear. I even installed Chinese Simplified and it made no difference. Please check and let me know, the debug window is set to display.

That's what I mean the language packs should not matter, thanks for your help.
По-русски
Unicode: U+041F, U+043E, U+002D, U+0440, etc.
These are Unicode characters of more than 8 bits (actually 16-bit characters). The fetch call is treating them as 8 bits and substituting nul in it's place. I have fixed it and it will be available soon.

Ok found some more bugs, Seems Yahoo changed more than just the Babelfish url. This might take a little while but I will finish it.

Ok everything is working now updated the Widget to use a minimum version of 4.0 working on getting to run with 4.5. Tweaked the graphic, added sound, context menu entries. This will be just a little while longer working on a better way of displaying the drop down menu so that it work correctly on the mac(don't want to leave my friends out). I think everyone will enjoy the new Translate Widget.

Do you mean your getting the debug window? If so I have it turned on in the previous download. Also in that version translating to Russian and some others is broken also translating anything to English is broken.
Here is a new version with all of those fixes plus a few extras. I' working on a new menu because there is a problem on the make with the zOrder which makes most of the men unclickable. This is not final I have a few more things to do but what is there works fine on Windows. Re download from the previous link.
