Description
The size of the English sponsor transform is now 1.3MB!!!  This is a result of us adding sponsors support for OpenOffice, Yahoo and 3Rings. This file is downloaded regardless of whether they actually choose to install one of our sponsor products.  Prior to this effort it was only 167KB. 

We should compress this file with lzma compression, and we can get it back down to 179 KB.

Evaluation
We already use lzma to compress the kernel.msi file.  We should use that same approach to compress the transforms files.
