>Hilmar, either Google reacts to IP address or it has localised DNS. Here in New Zealand when I hit www.google.com I find myself at www.google.co.nz . If I browse via our US proxy server it stays www.google.com. I guess your recent experience is Google's latest (hamfisted) effort to respect local norms rather than imposing North American hegemony!

Yes, I thought so. Quechua is spoken in Bolivia (though not as much as Spanish). But some things are strange: (1) Different behaviour between the Opera and FireFox browsers. (2) Preferences are not saved.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
