I'm not sure if the Arabic characters are supported, I would think it is.., but maybe not, however to have the program run in the 100% Arabic language wit the Arabic characters, someone like yourself (someone who knows Arabic and English) would have to translate the language file.

I see no reason why this can't be done.

To make a skin compatible with greek characters, i have to edit its xml file with the notepad.
(and repack the zip file)
For the default skin:
search and replace from "tahoma" (used in browser) to "Arial Greek"
Try something simillar for your language, and let us know.

Use the "replace All" button to change all fonts at once, just to be sure you changed the browser fonts too.
The trick work on any skin but other skins may use other fonts, thats why i said to try the "default.zip" skin, it uses tahoma as the browser font.
The zip file contain 2 skin versions, 1024x768 and 800x600, (pairs of bmp and xml files), Choose the xml you want to edit, and replace the original inside the zip, after edit it.
Do this at the original skin (you made changes already). Make a backup first.
I'm not sure if "Arial Arabic" exist, your os version is different (i use the european version)
Codepages and fonts may also differ.
You have to experiment, or maybe someone else can help you more...
