MSN.com redirecting to MSN.co.uk

[dburdon]

I've just tried to carry out a series of searches for an overseas (non-UK) based client. i was using MSN.com. I found it odd that although I was deliberately using MSN.com rather than MSN.co.uk, the search kept redirecting to MSN.co.uk.

In Control Panel >> Regional & Language Options >> Regional Options tab changing the 'Location' to 'United States' will correct this ... errrm error? lol :)

Try this:

After getting the results for your query you need to change the URL from http://search.msn.co.uk/results.aspx?q=your+query&FORM=QBRE to http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=your+query&FORM=QBRE
and check.
