Description
Hi again!
I'm having an issue with Cultures and WinForms.
I have created a WinForms application with "Default" and "es-MX" culture.
Launching with "es-MX" culture by setting it inside Main.
NetSparkle doesn't shows up with the desired culture and as far as I can see in the resources it has been translated to "es-MX".
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
var culture = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("es-MX");
CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentCulture = culture;
CultureInfo.DefaultThreadCurrentUICulture = culture;
...

Help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Research direction
Start from the CultureInfo setup in Main and reproduce the WinForms application with the es-MX culture. Trace how NetSparkle loads its localized resources; done means the NetSparkle UI displays the available es-MX translations when the application culture is set before startup.
