Have you tried changing the language settings in your browser? Tools ->
Options -> Languages in Firefox, somewhere similar in IE. Dunno about other
browsers, as I've never had to look for that option in Opera or
Konqueror... 

I had this type of issue with MSN a long time ago (maybe 5 years?) because
IE was set to request English/Canada and as a result, I kept getting the
MSN.CA page instead of the US one I wanted. When I emailed them they told
me about this trick... Maybe that's how Yahoo is doing it too?
