Why can't I download it. Everytime I try my computer blocks it somehow. Please do not reply with too technical stuff. Also do you have to pay for Google earth?? Betty |

I can't download it on my computer, I'm using an old version of windows! steam driven computer!, but everyone else in the house can. Perhaps that is all the problem is. Suex |

This is great...I just hovered over my brother's house in Canberra! Thanks for the tip, I had never heard of this. I didn't have any trouble downloading it, and I have Spybot and all kinds of AOL safeguards. The only thing is it disappears after I have been on it awhile, is it a timed out thing does anyone know?? |

Hi Everyone, Just to update you all, I have now managed to dowload Google Earth this morning. I don't know why it wouldn't download before but ok now. I have just viewed my house and then family relatives home in Elgin... have to go and search some more... Betty |
