How can I download these updates in French?

OK, long story cut short:
Me: Fast pc, adsl connection, cd writer, don't speak much French.
Aunt: Very old, lives in middle of no-where in France, very slow dialup, cd
player in laptop running WinME. Going to visit in a few days.

Problem: I managed to get her to open the critical updates page (somehow in
English, even though the locale is set to FR - she's a bright woman!). But
she won't want all the updates to start speaking English to her.
So with regards to all the things I have to put on a CD and take to her,
what's the easiest way of downloading the French versions and installing
them in such a way that we don't need to dialup (or if we do, we don't need
to download much...average speed is about 24Kb IIRC!)

Many thanks.

Windows Share Level Password Update

without knowing the entire password, and may be able to retrieve, modify, or
delete any file within that share. Download now to prevent unauthorized
