The following text is from the Office Update page.

I do not use, need, or want ANYTHING to do with French, so why am I REQUIRED
to waste huge amounts of time on a dial-up line downloading 3MB of utterly
unwanted junk?

MS needs to recategorize this as an OPTIONAL download for Office 2003!

The French Spelling Checker is included by default with all North American
English Office editions. It has a hole that can be exploited, whether you
use it or not. Download and install the patch or continue to run a
vulnerable machine.
