Whenever I search I get locations in Texas. I have never even lived in Texas. I checked my IP address and it is North Carolina like it is supposed to be.

I checked that before and it shows the correct location. But let me search for something like "sewing machine repairs" or "Red Lobster" and I get a list of the ones around Dallas TX.

Did you check; Location not accurate?

Open the options for the search sites you are using and check the information.

Desktop or laptop computer?

If the latter, any chance that laptop was used on a Wi-Fi connection in the Dallas area; like in a hotel that may have installed "something" on that laptop to provide the "free" internet connection?

It's been a few years but I have heard of search DNS redirect malware getting installed by a few hotel chains for using their Wi-Fi access points at "premium speeds".
