when I write an address in address bar it is automatically changed acc to my location - from .com to .country I'm in. Same with Google language. Can one stop it?
When I'm writing certain page address in address bar it gets changed according to my location. If I for example write google.com then I will end on page google.<country code> Of course I will also get the page in the language of the country I'm in (language which sometimes I do not speak). Can one do something so that if I write x.com then it STAYS com instead of redirecting me to a .country/language???

A lot of websites do a look up on your IP (reverse DNS lookup) and automatically send you to a site in the local language.
Google is one of them and you need to click the link at the bottom of the Google site to go to Google.com (www.google.com/webhp)
The only way to override that is to use an anonymous proxy that gives you an IP that locates you elsewhere.
