This was very useful to get a WebClient with a WebProxy configured to use a proxy server that is based on NTLM authentication.
The note in the MSDN NTLM and Kerberos Authentication . documentation however was totally wrong.
String MyURI = "http://www.contoso.com/";
Note NTLM authentication does not work through a proxy server.
This code works perfectly fine as the CredentialsCache.DefaultCredentials contains your NTLM or Kerberos credentials .

It is hard to find in the Windows MUI Knowledge Center for which Windows 7 editions you can change the language. Only when you carefully read Language Packs in Windows 7 , you see a table with “Availability and usage ” indicating how you can get language packs. To summarize, Complete language packs are only available for:
Ultimate Edition
MSDN subscribers
Registered OEMs
Enterprises
Server
Virtually all UI languages are complete language packs as shown in the table under Available Language Packs .
In other words: you cannot change the UI language in Windows 7 professional as this post phrases in a much simpler way:
Unfortunately, the Multilingual User Interface (MUI) Language Packs will only work in Windows 7 Ultimate or Enterprise editions.
So of all Windows 7 Editions , only Ultimate and Enterprise allow you to change the language.
Bummer, as for all Windows 8 editions (same for 8.1 and up) allow you to change the UI language .

Seems they got only released just yesterday because of the QA effort taking a long time. But it’s good news for Delphi/Rad Studio/C++-Builder Update Subscription members: some fixes are now back-ported to 2 Delphi versions. Which is a new milestone in support from Embarcadero.
Anyway: BLDN .
Note that the list of fixes is at the bottom of these pages:

I also found out that I never updated the links for XE8 update 1 downloads (I did the original XE8 links Delphi XE8 is out with version 22.0.19027.8951; Spring4D is almost ready. « The Wiert Corner – irregular stream of stuff ) so there they are:
