MS says Slovenian, Slovakian + Thai Fixes are only for Windows 98 SE [?] at all 3 download pages above, but I believe they can also be installed on Windows ME.
MS also says Slovenian, Slovakian + Thai Fixes are only for Windows ME [?] at MS06-002 Security Bulletin page:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/ms06-002.mspx
under the FAQ section:

WARNING:
The installers [*.INF files] of these Fixes contain a major BUG, caught by erpdude8:
http://www.msfn.org/board/?s=&showtopic=46...ndpost&p=447921

All these Fixes require MS Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 or newer already installed:
http://www.mdgx.com/toy.htm#IEX

T2EMBED.DLL 5.00.2195.7073 is identical with the one from Windows 2000 SP4 Fix [565 KB, English]:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/4/2...519-x86-ENU.EXE

Windows 98 SE + ME setup CD-ROMs both install T2EMBED.DLL build 0.2.0.69
MS Internet Explorer 6.0 + 6.0 SP1 both install T2EMBED.DLL build 0.2.0.81

Hope this helps.

MDGx, can you create an unofficial T2EMBED.DLL v5.00.2195.7073 patch for NT4 SP6a? I believe that file should also work under NT4.

unfortunately, when installing the Win98 or WinME version of the T2EMBED.DLL v5.00.2195.7073 patch, QFECheck cant find the updated t2embed.dll file. MS screwed up somewhere in the kb905819.inf file. I mentioned about it on my latest post at the New 98FE + 98SE + ME patches available thread.

That would be very easy, but requires NT4 SP5 or newer and MS IE 5/6 already installed.
I'll make one in the next few days.

Bummer, that's a big bug.
Did you try to send MS feedback about it?
Maybe they can correct the INF scripts. [?]

Yes, there is

HKLM,%UpdateKey%\%SPKey%\%LocaleID%%UpdID%,%10%\t2embed.dll,,"5.0.2195.7073"

instead of

HKLM,%UpdateKey%\%SPKey%\%LocaleID%%UpdID%,%11%\t2embed.dll,,"5.0.2195.7073"

in the KB908519.INF file. T2embed.dll file resides in SYSTEM disrectory.
