Is MSN Filtering Results?

On a search for summer music schools, I got a surprising amount of Irish results.
So surprising I can only assume they're filtering results based on my IP.
If so, is this a new development?

Which MSN are you using? MSN have given geo-targetted results for quite some time.

I see 3 Irish sites on the various MSNs - though in different positions on the first page.

I'm using the .com, granted I don't use it much, but I've never seen such "targetted" results for a non location specific search.
<added> My mistake, should have taken the time to check Positiontech, same-ish results there.
Still surprised at how many irish related sites feature, your clients MMT?
