How to determine geographic location (state) of browser

We are trying to determine which geographic state in
the U.S. a user is browsing from.

We have Webalizer, but are trying to determine it more
accurately (ie: so that all the AOL connections don't show as
coming from Virginia)

Any ideas are appreciated.

thanks,
Jim

Try to use some advanced counter and statistics system.

Honestly, I don't think it's possible to be done with 100% effect.
