The login module is part of joomla. Actually, all your pages are displayed in english on your front end (only your content is in spanish but that's normal since you wrote it in spanish...) so it must be a problem of language setup in joomla. For example, that page is also in english: [ torocars.com/index.php/component/users/?...tion&Itemid=&lang=es](http://torocars.com/index.php/component/users/?view=registration&Itemid=&lang=es) So you should first fix your joomla defualt language on your front end. Then, hikashop should automatically use it. Maybe the link below will help?

If it's missing, you should download it on joomla.org and install it via the joomla installer. Then, on the languages manager, you can set the en-US language as default.
