Why is currency format incorrect?

In my code, I have...

litCost.Text = string.Format("{0:c}", orderEntity.Cost);

And the output is...

$2.00

Also, it wants dates submitted in US format.

And yet....

In the website's IIS setting for .net Globalization Culture and UI Culture is English (United Kingdom) (en-GB).

And in Windows Region settings in Control Panel, the location is set to United Kingdom and the currency symbol is £.

This switch of format happend, I think, after a reboot.

Any ideas?

I set...

<globalization uiCulture="en-GB" culture="en-GB" />

in web.config.

I have no idea why the previous setting stopped working.
