Another superb addon - Translate Arabic text with Google
Just went onto the Google Language tools and noticed that they've added Arabic!!! This is great stuff - for those working and doing business in the Middle East, it can be quite a drawback not being able to understand Arabic papers, text and websites - this language add-on makes life a lot easier! The tool is still in the beta stage and does not do that great a job of translating (see screenshot) - but its definitely better than nothing...and at least gives you a good idea of the subject being discussed.
You can also translate pages from the Language options on the Google toolbar - here is an example of a BBC Arabic news page translated by Google from Arabic to English - NOT BAD!! :)
