How to get country-specific results?

    Hi,
    I'm from Germany. When I go to google.de and enter my keyword I get German results first if there are any.
    But if I go to google.com or google.co.in or any other Google domain I get German results as well.
    Of course, I could go to the advanced search form and tell Google to show me English results only. But what if I want to see English results that are located in India or Japan etc.?
    I want to see the same version like a resident sees including country-specific AdWords. How to manage this?
    The only workaround I know is to use a webproxy, but on the one hand webproxies are slow, on the other hand it's not that easy to find one for every country. Who can help?

    Thanks for your reply, but that's not what I'm looking for. There are Indian .com sites as well, for example. Besides I won't see Indian AdWords. I want to see the same SERPs that one from India would see.

    Anyone know?

    I had a tool to do this on my last PC but not on my current one, but there is a way in Internet Explorer of doing this...and I do remember it was very easy, just can't remember what it was, an add-in of some sort.

    I'd like to know the answer as well...

    Using proxies is the only way I know. Search for some good proxies and access them over high speed internet. Shudn't be too slow. If its a one time job.... you could manage with the slower speed I guess.

    Yeah but finding good proxies in a number of countries isn't that easy. Most proxies I know are often unreachable or even offline, show annoying ads or are very slow ...
