Google Earth

[Emery10046]

For some reason I can't down load Goggle Earth, I have 64 bit in windows 7. I've heard that Goggle has a problem with downloading Earth to Windows 7.
What sites can I go to download Earth successfully.

Where are you trying to download from, I have Google Earth on my Windows 7 machine and my Windows 8.1 Notebook and have never had problems with either downloading or installing.

Just go to google, choose maps. you can look at anything you want.

Hi,
Yep the only place you should be getting Google products is from a Google site,
https://www.google.com/earth/

Google earth is allot more than just maps

It might be you have McAfee (mac) for an antivirus product.

The web protection tries tooo hard to protect. Check and see it you can disable the web side of mac then try to D/L'd, I'd offer more, but you failed to supply full name of product, year and version numbers for mac.

I have a PC (Dell). I went to this Google site following directions clicked the download button, a drop down dialog box comes down. The directions on the dialog box says either, Save or Cancel, I click Save, nothing happens. My AV program is McAfee Security which might be the problem that's blocking my download. Any ideas?

Hi,
Yep Mcafee is not a recommended antivirus program it causes more frustration than actually doing any good,
Blocking user interface is common place unfortunately,

I would suggest getting rid of it and use a free antivirus like Panda or even MSE if you want to pay for a product consider picking up a lifetime license of Malwarebytes while they still are available ?
Cheers.

Anak, I will try to solve my problem by going to "SaaS Endpoint Protection Firewall"

I also thank TrashZone for his recommendation getting ride of McAfee, might try Arvia AV.

Thank you all for your help.

You won't be sorry you switched. avira or avast would be good choices. Make sure you use the Mac removal tool Thrashzone provided.
