But, but, that's the one I don't want...

We're telling your computer not to use the settings that they are trying to force you to.
- add: 72.14.207.99 www.google.com.co
- browse to: www.google.com.co
This will tell your computer to us the real google.com in place of the www.google.com.co

Why don't you just click on Preferences, to the right of the search box, and select English as your interface language?
If you're curious about the search results, you can exclude areas right below that option, although I think it switches to prioritize the language you've chosen.

I think that he just doesn't want those country preferences forced on him.
Language preferences don't matter if the page redirect is dictated by IP address.

Snafuracer: Actually, they do. I live in Sweden and used to have Spanish on my machine, now English.

I think that there may be an option in the Preferences.....your Google preferences....which permit you to select which page that you use as default.
My own Google page defaults to Google Thailand.
But there is a link to Google.com right on the page. I clicked it...and boom: I am on google.com, with a link offering to take me back to google.co.th, should I prefer.
I am signed into the gmail service....and I use an increasing number of Google services. Like news.
As the counselor points out, the price is right.

That's what I did before. Now they have the cookies blocked. When the prefs page comes up, it says I don't have cookies on - DAMN LIE! I do. All of them. It worked before, it's something they're doing.

When I click on that one, it also opens to .co
Dan,
I'll try that tomorrow.

ok, that is bizarre.
are you sure that Google is doing it?
I would almost suspect your ISP.
Not pointing fingers, of course.

Google is implementing it's thought control program, one country at a time.
Resistance is futile.
