Why is there a problem of redirecting the google web page to another Web page with Australian Search ( Optional) searching at www.google.com IP Number 216.239.35.100 searching at www.google.com.au IP Number 216.239.37.100 You get exactly the same results on both except www.google.com.au has an option to search in Australia if needed To use the original Googles go to http://www.google.com/en the Aussie Mirror is www.google.com.au Regards "Uncle Bully" <wakeupcall@optushome.com.au.REMOVE> wrote in message > The <<CENSORED>>> > > This happened when I was in NZ a couple of weeks ago and I thought it was > strange. > Now its happening here and I don't like it one bit. > > > > > I have just starte having a problem trying to connect to google.com.

Take your medication. Just because google have chosen to have a .au domain says sweet fuck all about the govt. Even someone as stupid as you must have noticed that yahoo got a .au domain years ago now.
