Viewing chinese, japanese, and korean web pages in Windows XP

Say you want to view Chinese, Japanese, or Korean web pages in Windows XP and you don't have your Windows CD handy (which is what you normally need to install the required fonts). Rather than digging through a big box of crap, you can install these fonts from Microsoft:

Japanese
Korean
Chinese Simplified
Chinese Traditional (Complicated?)

Note that this will only let you view these languages -- if you want to input them, you still need your CD.

If you have a different version of Windows (2000, Vista, etc.), follow the directions here:
Japanese
Korean
Chinese
