You can find a good explanation here:

You should check which http header you are sending to the server.
Install this firefox plugin:

Perhaps the language in your browser is not defined in a standard way?

This is what I get:

Accept-Language: en-US,it;q=0.8,en;q=0.5,it-IT;q=0.3

and the website serves correctly the italian pages.
