Recently I updated four PC's with Windows XP SP3.

Two are running language NL and two are running language EN-US.
I used the from MicroSoft downloaded .EXE files without any problem.

WindowsXP-KB93629-SP3-x86-NLD.exe size 313.157KB for the PC's using Dutch and WindowsXP-KB93629-SP3-x86-ENU.exe size 324.030KB for the two PC's using English.

The size of the two language different files is quite close.

Later I downloaded the .ISO files to create NL and EN SP3 CD's.
xpsp3_5512.080413-2113_nl_x86fre_spdcd.iso size 377.870KB and xpsp3_5512.080413-2113_usa_x86fre_spdcd.iso size 557.932KB

I wonder, why the big size difference between the ISO's???
