"pages from the UK " doesn't work

For the last few days I haven't been able to access UK only results (yes I'm based in England) so I'm having to wade through mainly US sites to find what I'm looking for. I've even been compelled to go to Y! several times when I've been looking for UK based stockists of goods I want to buy. No doubt conspiracy theorists would suggest that this could be another way of gently prompting us to click on the ads but that thought never crossed my mind - perish the thought.

Works fine for me.

On G.ie we're being intermittently redirected to both .de and US.com, though you get .ie if you type it in.

Hi Engine. Tried it, three computers, two ADSL lines, IE6 under XP and Vista, Firefox under Linux, same result.

OK, the only other two suggestions I can make are:

Try via a different ISP - ISP caching

Check for Adware/Spyware, although multiple computers are less likely (unless all infected) to be hit with the same effect.

Aha! It's a Google toolbar problem. Going direct to the site solves it but every time I go via a toolbar the problem comes back. I really ought to unistall them but habits die hard.
