Google!!

Has anyone had problems with Google today?

Searches are real slow and I can't load the Maps in at all.

Anyone any suggestions?

I'm still finding it impossible to get any sort of mapping to work on my PC (like Google maps etc), are there any settings I can check? And what should I be looking for.

I've restored my PC to last week, as I'd downloaded Google Earth at the weekend and thought it might be that.

Any Idea's.

Google earth works fine for me. But everytime I try to load the latest version so I can fly around as suggested by codders it crashes. Was doing that the other day though.

Has an anti virus program of yours got a thing about google ?

May be completely unrelated, but the flight simulator worked absolutely fine for me the other day (when Codprawn first posted about it). However, the last two evenings I've tried it, Google Earth loads fine, but the PC crashes when I try to switch to the flight sim. Something about a graphics card error - so I assumed it must be my slightly older PC not being up to the job. However, seemed a bit weird that it worked fine when first tried. Everything else on my PC works as normal.

All my problems started after loading google earth, but i've since unloaded it and system restored which hasn't helped at all.
