Usualy geo targeting banners show my location as Zagreb,and that will always show since all national ISP's are located in Zagreb.But some banners like sexsearch has correctly show my city,Varazdin.How is that possible?Does that banner maybe extract system info or browser info(maybe they use security holes).I think there must be some catch since there on ip info always will be city Zagreb.
