I had an issue where my ISP changed my IP (we aren't promised static, but it usually stays the same) and all of the sudden google started redirecting to google.es....
It eventually stopped, but it was a pain to deal with - every system at home had to have a cookie set specifically (by clicking "Google.com in English") so that it wouldn't revert to google.es PITA if you ask me, but it eventually cleared up and didn't redirect anymore, even without the cookie, but it took about a month and a half. cb -----Original Message----- From: Micheal Espinola Jr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2008 10:36 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: IE7 redirecting to Google.de FWIW I completely agree.
