Whenever I'm on websites which auto detect location, such as http://www.topix.net/forum/motorcycles/scooters my location is shown as Billingham , however I live in Washington. Why is this?
Why would it cause speed problems? Some of these "location" sites are actually badly coded and take your proxy as your location. If you are running a non-local proxy address (because your local one is knackered) then it can often show your location as that of the proxy.
