Turbo uses Opera's servers that have a Norway IP address. I tried enabling Turbo and then went to www.yahoo.com which redirects to http://no.yahoo.com/?p=us (I'm in the US). There is a link in the horizontal menu bar at the top to go to Yahoo.com which takes you to www.yahoo.com.

If he needs to use Turbo, he could go to http://us.yahoo.com/ If in another country, go to http://everything.yahoo.com/index.php?world to select a homepage by country.
