Update KB 835732 "setup cannot update your Windows XP files because the language installed on your system is different from the update language"

Pleeeaaase can somebody help me, it's not the first time that this matters to me but I did download - according to my system - the patch for Windwos XP...and it shouldn't be a difference whether I download it in German or in English, shouldn't it!??!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!

Anna,

It DOES make a difference if you've downloaded the wrong language
version of the update. The update MUST be the same language as the
version of Windows that you are using .

Go here :
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sec.../MS04-011.mspx

Under the " General Information " heading click the plus sign next to
Security Update Information, click the plus sign next to
Windows XP (all versions). Scroll down to " File Information " and
compare the versions of callcont.dll, mst120.dll, and nscom.dll
with the files on your system ( make sure you choose pre-SP1 or with SP1
to match your installation ). They are located in the Program
Files\NetMeeting folder. Right click the files, choose Properties. If
these files match, the update is showing in Add/Remove Programs in the
Control Panel, and the registry key matches(it is given on the above
page under " Verifying Update Installation ") , then the update is
installed and not being detected by the Windows Update site.
