The release increases the languages that Internet Explorer is available in by 18. Note that these languages are available for Internet Explorer on Windows XP, Vista and Windows Server.
Also note that Windows Vista users can download and install Internet Explorer 9 instead, the latest version available for the operating system which ships with a similar set of supported interface languages.
On systems that have the OS MUI pack installed, it is necessary to install the English version of the web browser first before the MUI pack for it is installed on the system. Another requirement is that the OS MUI language for the language that you want to use Internet Explorer 8 in is installed as well.
