    I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with broadband either. I'll move this as I think it's probably got to do with settings in windows or a problem with some software.

    @jcoote - I had the exact same problem once ..... turned out it was Norton Internet Security. Easy to try out (if you have NIS installed) - just disable the firewall; close all IE sessions and try again.
    Worth a try if it applies ...... just my 2 cent's worth :p

    google also checks your connection and if possible redirects to the local site - in this case google.ie

    Personally, I fail to see the issue... You can still search. Is there a specific reason you need to use a different Google national variant?
