Google thinks I live in UK - Improperly redirected to www.google.co.uk

[dollar22bill]

I live in California, use Internet Explorer, and use Wal-Mart Connect software to connect to the internet. Today, each time I visited www.google.com, I was redirected to www.google.co.uk. I searched the internet and found a post that stated "users visiting www.google.com with a UK IP address are being redirected to www.google.co.uk." I don't know whether this is true and can't imagine that I have a UK IP address since I live in California and dial a local phone number to connect to the internet.

Please tell me what I need to do to have google let me enter www.google.com. Thanks.
