    Doing some research for some australian domains and while google appears to be returning Australian results, Yahoo and MSN are still returning global results. Does the php script have to be hosted on an Australian IP address or is there another reason for this?

    Thanks

    What's the query you are using in Yahoo/MSN (normally at their website) to return only Australian domains?
