annoying problem with google.

[blues]

i have an annoying problem, i have always used www.google.no as startpage and have forgotten that www.google.com has more features, it also has more results than www.google.no even when searching on all languages on both sometimes. right now i changed from www.google.no to www.google.com but when opening ie7 i get redirected to www.google.no instead and must click on the "get google in english" to get to the english one, but when deleting my cookies i get redirected to www.google.no again. how do i stop this redirect? i dont get redirected from www.yahoo.com to no.yahoo.com when using www.yahoo.com

do google expect that we store cookies forever to make this working? what should i do to be able to use only www.google.com

Have you set Internet Explorer 7 to "http://google.com" as your homepage? Click 'Apply'.

Restart the browser (close and reopen).

yes i have done that in both firefox and internet explorer, but it just changes from .com to .no so it changes from the english one to the norwegian one. i talked with someone on the phone and they thought that it wasnt possible to use the english one without google setting a cookie when i click on "get google in english" so every time i delete my cookies i get redirected to the norwegian one again.

i didnt think about this but what if you try to set your startpage to www.google.no are you then redirected to the english one?

There is one configuration: multiple content language, but I don't know where it is in IE 7. In IE 6, it's located in Tools > Internet Options > "Languages..." button (In "General" tab.) Check the Languages List. Which languages are listed?

only norwegian is listed in internet explorer. in firefox it is listed norwegian and english and norwegian is first.
