Google interprets my .com.au address as in Malaysia. I've turned off the geo.enabled feature and it still says I'm in Malaysia. How can I set my location to my
My work email address is John.Lovely@macdow.com.au but google identifies my address as Rawang, Selangor, Malaysia and won't accept any change of location except within Malaysia. I've turned off geo.enabled as per help and has had no effect. I just want all this Automation to go away so I can set my location.

Who knows - I tried Google Chrome and it put me in the same place as Firefox and confirming (to my mind) that the problem was google, not firefox. Then I opened MS IE and it had my country and city correct. next thing it was ok in Firefox as well! Maybe Firefox reads the Internet Explorer settings. Any way it fixed itself.

see if this is helpful, from Firefox button > History > Clear Recent History > Time range to clear select everything > Details select Cookies > click the Clear Now button > exit firefox and re-start it.
thank you
If you bookmark Google's address as http://www.google.com.au/, you will get the Australian Google page.
