I used one of the older already installed versions OK on Friday in Jeddah.

Maybe it is working and that empty blackness you see is actually the result of clearance work by the Vogons to make way for an intergalactic highway... It's awfully echoey in here all of a sudden sudden sudden...

And Google Earth is not working for me either (Etisalat), was working a couple days ago...

To access GE 3 servers need to be contacted, Sillysat are fiddling around blocking one of them. To solve the problem go into Tools-Internet Options-Connections-Lan settings tick use proxy server and type in
proxy1.emirates.net.ae this shoud get GE working again.
