Google search thinks i'm in Germany

Hi

Just wondered if anyone else has been having this problem, when i perform a search with Google in either Firefox or Internet Explorer Google appears in German.

I have tried changing all my settings and even updated to Firefox 3.5 but the problem still persists.

Any suggestions would be appreciated as this is getting really annoying now.
