Done an update to windows 8.1 recently but notice now i cannot get the USA version of Cnet.com or the UK version of Cotswoldoutdoors. Keeps giving me the IE version of the latter and the UK version of the former. Where do I switch this feature off (windows or Google Chrome?)

not sure its a OS setting. Same issue whether or IE or Chrome for me also - perhaps the sites in question are geo-locking but that does not really makes sence as to why they might do that.
