It happens when doing a search through the Firefox
search bar. I've just noticed that if I go to
http://www.google.com/ in IE on Windows XP it
redirects me to google.it which reaffirms my theory
that I'm getting some weird geo IP location stuff.

Anyone else got thoughts on if it could be anything
else?
