I can't raise Google Earth. I get an error message saying it can't
connect to the server.

I've done the trouble shooting they suggest; deleted the dbCache file
and its index file, downloaded the latest Google Earth application
5.1.3533.1731

Nothing doing.

Google Maps is a pretty good substitute, especially since they extended
the uk coverage of Street View, which makes it a lot more useful that
Google Earth. But still... Any ideas?

Working fine here but then, you were posting an hour ago, anything could
have happened since...

Nope; it's still broken here, and has been for several days. Clearly
something wrong at my end. I need to try with Anne's MBP, but our small
grandson is sleeping in that room, so it can wait till tomorrow.

Thanks anyway...

It's working here but not 100%. When I zoom on a photo it works fine
but, if I change location and then try to zoom it reverts to the
previous one...

A. Doesn't sound too clever. But here it simply tells me that it can't
connect to http://kh.google.com:80/

I can traceroute there okay, and I don't have a firewall running, so as
I say I'll have to try tomorrow on Anne's MBP.
