Google Showing Wrong Country For Search Results

    I wasn't exactly sure where to post this so I think this is the right category.

    So, for some reason when at one of my customer's office locations and use Google to search the internet and go to www.google.com I get "Google New Zealand" I thought it might be computer specific so I tested it with my own laptop and the same thing happens, connect to the network and google thinks I'm in New Zealand.

    Anyway, I checked with the T1 provider here which is Cbeyond (a local telcom here in Denver, Colorado), I checked the Arin.net info for the IP and Arin says the IP is in Denver, Colorado.

    I tried a few "what is my IP" sites and they all show a map which shows I am in Denver, Colorado..

    I'm not sure how Google is determining that I am in New Zealand?

    Any one ever have this problem?
