I have the same Issue here with the two last updates from
late August. ( WSS2003 SP1 and .net framework SP3 )

the SUS server is in production from more than 4 Month
now, and configured to download only eng and frn updates.
I recieved for these two patch ALL languages version.

What annoys me is that the 10 SUS server connecting to my
central one will have the updates too !!!

I "think" it's a "language tagging problem" for the
patches that are released by Microsoft.

any more clues on this ?
