Hi, sorry if the title is confusing.
I regularly visit a website whicg is a specialist website for custom
engineering products.
The website puts up a banner ad about specials available from
associated businesses using my specific town name. (example: Get your
referance Books from Bookworld, xxxxxxx (my town name))
Most of the time these make no sense whatever because my town is less
than 600 people.
Anyway, they can not be getting the town name from the IP address
because I connect via dialup in another town and the ISP is based in a
third.
How might a site legitimatly be getting this information or does this
indicate a virus of some type.
It is just annoying because every time I access the site I get junk
email about products I have been looking at.
I use Firefox 1.04 as web browser.
thanks for any assistance.
