Why does the GPS think i'm somewhere else

I've got lousy GPS reception indoors and it's almost impossible to get a fix, that's not really a problem, i can just walk outdoors. But what buggers me is, why does the (A)GPS believe i'm almost 400km south of where I am, in a location I havn't lived in for almost 2 years? And it's spot on to that old address. If I use a browser on my computer and surf to m.here.com it shows my real (approximate) location. I've tried using the GPS when driving home, going inside, still my real location and after a while when it looses the GPS fix, it teleports me south again.
