iTunes stuck in China - Can't change country

My iTunes / Apps store account thinks I'm in China. Somehow the country got changed to China. I cannot change it. Both within iTunes and the App store, when I go to change the country, it stays stuck on the country change page. When I go to update my address, it won't let me, because it is looking for a Chinese province instead of a City/State. When I click the little flag icon on the bottom right and change it to USA, it logs me out. When I log back in, it defaults to China again. I checked on Apple's website, and my account says USA everwhere. I changed my account ID and password and tried logging in again to iTunes and the App store, but I get the same error. I tried deleting my Itunes prefs - no help.


Any thoughts? Did I get hacked? Anything else to try?
