Bart, here's the URL Carlos wants to translate: =
http://search5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/search/auc?p=3D%BC%DC%C8%AC&auccat=
=3D22652&alocale=3D0jp&acc=3Djp

I get the same identical results through Alta Vista's Babel Fish as with =
your Infoseek, except the Babel Fish seems faster.

Do you get different results from Infoseek than you get through =
AltaVista? I believe both sites are using the same Systran software, =
aren't they?

Understand, please, I'm not arguing at all; I want to learn, and I =
particularly want to get the best translation.

Thanks!

  Gene,

  =20

  Since the site is in Japanese, what is your process for translating? =
I ran it through the altavista Babel Fish Translation tool which you =
sent out a while back but only got garbage out. =
http://babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr. Do you read Japanese?
