Windows XP:  Start > Settings > Control Panel > Appearances and Themes > Fonts (on the left side of the window in See Also section)
Alternatively, choose the Classic View to view the Fonts folder.

   ii) Copy the downloaded font file into the Fonts folder.

   iii) Restart the Internet Explorer so that the newly installed font is loaded by the browser.

   iv) Now open the Guruji page: http://www.guruji.com/ and check whether you are able to see the links in any of the Indian languages supported by Guruji. If you are able to see the fonts in a Indian language, then you can start entering a search word in the chosen Indian language.

   v) If you are not able to see the links in a Indian language, then you need to click on a language link of your choice. The list of Indian languages supported is displayed below the search box in the Guruji main page.

NOTE: For the Guruji page, the language option you had chosen is stored by the browser. The subsequent visits to Guruji main page will take you directly to the language page chosen in your previous visit to Guruji page.
