Check the language settings on the laptop. If the user's locale is set to "German", Google will recognize that from the HTTP headers the browser sends, and redirect to the German Google site. DE = Deutschland, the native name for Germany. Also check if the user has a Google account that has a similar locale setting.

As I recall, somebody in Germany (or maybe it was the EU) already had a trademark on "Gmail", so in Germany, it is officially called "Google Mail". -- Ben ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
