Well, they are either using IP or HTTP request-header checks that are 
not working properly, or your browser is telling them that you are in 
the US.

It works for me with firefox here at work, and also with mozilla at home 
(pipex).  In fact I am fairly sure I have never got the US real.com page 
when I have gone there (which admittedly is infrequently).

Will.
