Actually if you use only 2 or 3 apps in japanese and 10 or 20 in your 
default locale your best option is applocale.

the only bug i encountered is that the MSI installer is always in SJIS 
after i ran a couple of apps in japanese, my XP is in Spanish so all 
accents appear as kanji in installers based on MSI after that.
But Yahoo! Japan Messenger works fine and i can search in japanese on 
WinMX now.
