First Wave of Localized IE7 Releases Now Available

We have released  Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP in five new languages:  German, Japanese, French, Spanish, and Finnish. You can download these today from the IE website.

As with the English version, we’re making the localized downloads available a few weeks ahead of distribution via Automatic Updates. German, French, Spanish and Finnish users should be prepared for AU distribution by mid-November. Japanese AU distribution will begin this spring.

We will release additional languages as they are ready over the next few months. I talked about the details on all the versions, MUI packs, and Language Interface Packs in this earlier post.
