Change Language - I don't speak or read Dutch

In attempting to install Windows update KB905474 to XP Professional I got an
error code of 0x80242006. When I entered the error code in the search box
the response came up in Dutch. I can't fugure out how to get my Microsoft
site back to English. The home page, support page and knowledge base all
comes up in Dutch. Please Help.

Please download and install:

http://www.download.windowsupdate.co...d496154544.exe

Then re-boot Windows. Does this solve your problem with 905474?

That's a different problem. Go to
http://support.microsoft.com/common/international.aspx
and select your language in the drop-down menu. Does that fix your problem?

The language change fix worked and through a previous thread I had picked up
on the Windows Update KB905474 fix. Thanks for your help.
