Just logged onto yahoo mail and a notification alerted me that there have been lots of login from the netherlands. Msg below.

We detected a suspicious login to your Yahoo! account (June 09, 2012, 12:20 PM) from Netherlands (176.253.160.45).
Note: This location is based on information from your ISP or wireless provider.

I changed my password asap but the logins keep happening and are the same time i'm logging in BUT before this date it says united kingdom.

It looks like i'm logging in as the times from the netherlands is the exact same time as me here bar an hour. Why would my isp be from the netherlands in stead of uk. i just do not understand it.

Thanks for any light shed :)

    Probably because the Dutch lost at football .... nah scratch that :D
    The domain is managed/registered on RIPE which is in Holland, however the whoislook up definitely returns UK as the IP owner. Look here http://whois.domaintools.com/176.253.160.45
