Google

All of a sudden google thinks I'm canadian. I type in google.com and I get google.ca
anyone know why this is, and how to fix it?
not that this is a huge problem, but it is bugging the hell out of me

Hmmm ... I'm in Cal too, and I get the correct page.

Works fine here, tried clearing out your temp files or cookies ?

 

[rettahc]

I've decied to use the elmer fudd google instead
http://www.google.com/intl/xx-elmer/

try www.madmatt.org/xperience/desktop/google.html

written for active desktop, but it works.

Not language related, but there is o/s specific versions of google...

http://www.google.com/microsoft
http://www.google.com/bsd
http://www.google.com/linux

update:
Okay I cleared the temp files and cookies- no change

madmatt can't tell where your link actually sends me it just shows place to enter a search and a couple of buttons.

What's really weird is that its just www.google.com if I go to http://www.google.com/microsoft it load that fine

like I said this does not actually cause any problems, its just annoying as hell.........
