I took these strings from a different proggy:
${LANG_ENGLISH} "Program Files"
${LANG_GERMAN} "Programmdateien"
${LANG_PORTUGUESEBR} "Arquivos de programas"
${LANG_DANISH} "Programmer"
${LANG_LITHUANIAN} "Programos failai"
${LANG_SPANISH} "Archivos de programa"
${LANG_FRENCH} "Fichiers"
${LANG_GREEK} "Áñ÷åßá ðñïãñÜììáôïò"
${LANG_TRADCHINESE} "µ{¦¡ÀÉ(r)×"
${LANG_HUNGARIAN} "Programfájlok"
${LANG_ITALIAN} "Programmi"
${LANG_KOREAN} "ÇÁ·Î±×·¥"
${LANG_SLOVAK} "Program"
${LANG_RUSSIAN} "Program Files"
Basically the file could not be found since we are looking for
"Program Files" while CCA might not really know that non-English XP
should have a different directory name for that.
For instance, a student would have Spanish XP installed so that we
should be able to find the file here:
C:\Archivos de programa\Symantec Antivirus\rtvscan.exe
Do you guys think that CCA might be looking for this instead?
C:\Program Files\Symantec Antivirus\rtvscan.exe
I pretty much ran into the same problems before when we were
installing Sophos. Maybe it was not worth the effort to change
anything on the server side so I simply got rid of the software and
then re-install it after I manually created this directory:
C:\Program Files
So only anti-virus software is installed under "Program Files" all by
itself while the rest can be located under "Archivos de programa" from
now on. More like a workaround but it does work like a charm.
That means we have to manually install the anti-virus for non-English
XP rather than running a script or something. A very brief training
might be required for our staff and/or student workers.
Not exactly sure whether it could be addressed by future releases of
CCA or not. They would have to obtain some non-English XP for testing
purposes and then replicate that specific problem to see what to do
about it.

Our custom checks look at the file version for rtvscan.exe and see if they fall within a window. Most students run the checks without problems, but it seems that non-english OSes do not check the file version properly.
