This is a little complicated and certainly reflects the hegemonistic role
US-based corporations (e.g., Microsoft) play in world commerce these days.

Internet Explorer 7 MUI allows the user interface language of the browser to
be changed to one of the following supported languages: Arabic, Bulgarian,
Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch,
Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian,
Japanese, Korean, Lithuanian, Latvian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese
(Brazil), Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish,
Swedish, Thai, Turkish.

As you can see above, IE7 MUI doesn't include English language interface.

Now, you *could* uninstall your Danish-language version of IE7 then
download/install the English-language version...BUT when you then install
any Cumulative Security Update for IE7 (and it would be foolish not to do
so), IE7 will automatically become the Danish-language version since you're
running a Danish-language version of WinXP.

So to run an English-language version of IE7, you have two choices (barring
any EU vs MS lawsuits):

1. Install and English-language version of WinXP; or

2. Never update the English-language version of IE7.

I certainly would NOT recommend #2 above! <eg>
