I have tried global translator and I do not think it is really easy to use out of the box or has some kinks in it
I prefer to use

Thanks so much! I’ll give some of these a try.
It takes time to get all your pages translated – a word of warning though, I’ve had the latest version running for several weeks now (set to translate a page every 6 minutes) and I’ve got about 90 posts or so in total and over 125MB of translated pages stored in the cache. I’m only set to translate into 6 other languages too…
The advantage this plug-in has over the other one above is that you can translate your posts (not just the comments) and have google index them as a seperate post.
If there was a plug-in that did this translation, stored it in mysql and also allowed unique page addresses for each translation, then it would be perfect in my book.

Boy oh boy, can I agree with that! A translator that creates a proper silo structure with /en/ /fr/ etc, permalinks. Only retranslating the post when it is modified and it is NOT cached but actually part of the wordpress blog.
Makes sense to me.
On a sidenote, has this issue mentioned here been corrected with this plugin: http://www.toptut.com/2008/06/30/global-translation-plug-in-for-wordpress-think-twice-before-activating/
