    Well,
    Just changed my ISP , brand new IP, and head to http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=ip+to+location&btnG=Search

    Checking the first ones from the list:

    http://Ip2location.com says i am from "UNITED KINGDOM"
    http://www.seomoz.org/ip2loc says "Location not found"
    http://www.geobytes.com/IpLocator.htm says "We are unable to locate the address xx.xx.xxx.xxx at this time."
    http://www.ipaddresslocation.org/ says i am from "France"
    http://www.melissadata.com/Lookups/iplocation.asp says i am from "UK"
    http://www.maxmind.com/app/locate_ip says "Country N/A"
    http://www.ip-adress.com/ ... keeps loading trying to find it...
    http://ip-address.domaintools.com/ says "United Stats"
    and Finally http://www.hostip.info ... says "actually we haven't a clue." :rolleyes:

    The only possible explain i can think is that these are new IP's and are not yet included into IP databases.
    I am curious to see how much this will long.
