If you're bored you can look at the various languages Google comes in. GOOGLE worldwide : Languages and countries.

Google Interlingua http://www.google.com/intl/ia/

That is pretty cool!

Shows what you can come up with when you have time and a bit of creativity. Kind of how kids defeat schools filters...

Maybe check your router settings? There could be some setting that's triggering this to happen with Google. Otherwise my only guess is that it has something to do with your ISP.

Well my router broke. Kept DCing me every 2 seconds so I need to get a new one anyways. It still has something that says go to google france though so its not the router (im connected to the modem right now)

BC_Programmer · « **Reply #17 on:** March 22, 2009, 01:14:43 PM »

regional settings?

computeruler · « **Reply #18 on:** March 22, 2009, 01:19:27 PM »

where would that be?

BC_Programmer · « **Reply #19 on:** March 22, 2009, 01:28:11 PM »

XP:Control panel->regional options

Vista:Control Panel->Clock Language and region

computeruler · « **Reply #20 on:** March 22, 2009, 01:34:08 PM »

nope its set to USA

BC_Programmer · « **Reply #21 on:** March 22, 2009, 01:34:54 PM »

ahh, ok. since it's the same when you connect to the modem it might be your isp.

Computer Hope Admin · « **Reply #22 on:** March 24, 2009, 10:15:32 AM »

I'd imagine it has something to do with your ISP / Router simply because when your friend connects to your network he's having the same issue.

computeruler · « **Reply #23 on:** March 24, 2009, 01:24:19 PM »

2 people I know with roadrunner are experiencing the same exact thing so its the isp

They also changed my ip address to all 3 digit numbers where before some of them used to be 2
