country IP

[Ekphantos]

Ok, not strictly a topic for a snooker forum, but maybe someone knows:
Since I moved to France I always get the French versions of all websites that are available in different languages, e.g. myspace, piratebay.... probably due to my IP. For some of the pages you can switch to other languages, but you have to do it evertime you visit the page. I am using German versions of Windows, Firefox..., so I wonder if there is way to make the websites understand that I am German speaking...

Websites do indeed use IP to identify nationality, unfortunately the only way I can think of to 'fake' a German IP would be to access the web through a German proxy server. I say unfortunately because unless you can find a very good one it'll most likely significantly slow your connection.
