how do you uninstall a language pack?
yesterday, my Vista Ultimate picked up the update(s) and since it showed a list of
language packs, I decided to install one

by mistake, I picked the wrong language (walked away from machine when it started
downloading)

when I returned to my desk, the install was 50% done and despite pressing Cancel (no
effect), it proceeded to install from a 200mb download about 1 gig of language files

now, I can't find anywhere an uninstall for this language? have looked at control
panel -> programs and also windows update

controlpanel - regional settings

there is a tab somewhere saying "install or uninstall display languages"

or you can simply run LPKSETUP from command - it starts the same program to
maintain the lp.cabs on your machine.
