[squid-users] Wrong country recognition on websites after Squid configured as transparent proxy

Dear Squid users,

I've configured Squid as transparent proxy on my linux-based router.
Everything is working fine, but one thing is really bothering me.
After entering any website, my public IP is recognized as it becomes
from US. I.e. currency on international shops becomes US dollar ; some
wordpress statistics applications gives our IP US flag in graphical
access_log presentation. Im sure, that problem is in Squid, because
when I temporary disable http via Squid, everything is working fine.
Does anybody knows why this happens? How to configure Squid to
represent all http requests as they belong to originate country
(Poland, to be more specific).
Thank you in advance for any tips or clues.

Best Regards
