Hi stickyrice :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:

How To Add and Enable Additional Languages in Windows
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q177561

You can also add/install languages from your Windows CD

also.......

When you to read another language website without installing any
language pack, you'll see some odd characters. In this page, right click
and select
Encoding->More->the language you want (depends on the website you are
visiting), you will be asked to install the corresponding language pack.
Follow the instruction to install, you'll be able to view website.

and........

Change Language in IE

Tools/Internet Options/ General Tab> at the bottom there is a button for
Languages> Look in the window for the language you want, highlight it and
then click Change. Then close out. Close and reopen IE and the new language
should now be the default language.

If the language you want in not in the window list, click the Add button and
scroll to the language you want, highlight it and then click OK, then
highlight the new language and click on Change.

Hope this helps
