i'm guessing you mean from their ip address from the HttpRequest (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.httprequest.aspx).

The property UserHostAddress (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.httprequest.userhostaddress.aspx) is your starting point:

"Gets the IP host address of the remote client."

you can purchase databases from websites like ip2location.com.

also, likely free sources are available.

NOTE: ip2location can usually inform you about the geographical location associated with an ip address; however, such information is not that reliable ~~ often it's the isp or proxy server address; it can also be spoofed. Example: i'm in canada but my dedicated web server is in the U.S.; if i remote from my office via my U.S. dedicated server to your website, you would falsely assume that i'm located in the U.S.
