So did I... I chose 'en-US' - so why, when I click on 'Click here for
Support information' in 'Add/Remove Programs' does it show does all 57
languages as being installed?

That is another gripe - why, oh why, does it default to installing every
dictionary under the sun? That is just plain stupid. I have to disable
ALL dictionaries, then select just the one I want.

That is the point - they should NOT be separate downloads. They never
were for OOo, and it just plain makes no sense, just to save a measly 10MB.
