Adding Tamil Language Support in Windows

Here you go a post for my native language Tamil . But don`t worry other Indian language guys, the same process will be applied for the supported Indian language by the software. It actually supports Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Oriya, Punjabi and Telugu.
This post will help you in installing Tamil language support to your web browser and Operating System. Just visit the Microsoft website link to Indic Language Input Tool .
Spend few moments to read the instructions to add support to web browser and how to type Tamil text in the browser.
Latter goes the desktop version wherein you need to download a piece of software to install from here. After the installation is complete, you don`t have to restart ;) as a classic way of MS software to work sometimes. You can now see the Tamil language listed and please note you have to select the language each time to type in Tamil font. I mean this works as "per application on language select"(new term coined by me just few moments before :)) basis. If the language bar did not shows up, don`t worry, you need to enable the option to show him. Just visit here to enable that. its the direct link for Windows 7, you can scroll throughout the page to find your OS type instructions.
