    it’s just possible a virus or malware has changed your DNS server address to one in Turkey. happened to me on my work machine a while back, the DNS server changed to somewhere in the Ukraine. STW’s adverts went all foreign, the web slowed down hugely, some pictures failed to load, and I couldn’t access our own spam mail server (it was blocking me on the basis of effectively trying to access it from some site in the Ukraine!).

    OR you could just try deleting history/cache/temp internet files etc…

    the /ncr stands for no country redirect

    its probably your preferences, someone having a laugh at your expense…

    Open Search settings and change your language back to English or whatever..

    If your still stuck in Turkish then its….

    Click on “Arama ayarlar?” on the top right.
    Change the first drop down to “Elmer Fudd”

    Save changes with the grey button on the bottom right.

    When you figure out who it is, do the same to their mobile phone. It’s far harder to reset 🙂
