This may be on twice. Don't think it posted the first time.

Big problem.. My homepage is Google UK. Now when it loads I get the home page of "The Government and the Government Offices of Sweden" but it is usually in Swedish ie; "Sveriges regering och regeringskansli"

Cleared Cookies and all history from IE7 also all old Restore Points. No difference. Got heavy virus checker and Firewall but in Live Protection but it hasn't picked up anything. Neither has my antispyware. Any ideas guys??

More info: Just changed homepage to www.ask.co.uk as the search engine and that's ok. Is it something to do with Google??

Just looked at it now after getting in from work and everything is back to normal. Haven't touched a thing. must have been a glitch on Google.

Interested to know if anyone else had the same thing.
