Hi Milly,

The non-availability of updates isn't what the following links suggest:

Interesting. If you go here:

<http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=AF6C8D03-7633-45B4-
AB96-795EE656F2A2&displaylang=en>

the offered download is 166kb.

If you change the language to Spanish, the download size changes.

Mistake on the web page, do you think, or does it actually give you a Spanish
language download vs English?
