    Google Earth V4 (Non-Beta) MSI here

    Hi
    I have just downloaded the latest version of Google Earth 4 which has finally left the beta.
    If you need a MSI I have provided a download for you that I created.
    The user cache is stored in c:\program files\google\google earth\usercache
    It is set to use a maximum of 400mb as per the default. Everyone has full write permissions on the usercache folder.

    If you have my previous MSI build of version 3 (click here for more info) this MSI will automatically remove my MSI and install version 4 in its place. This should also be safe to do via Group Policy.
    If you are using the google distro you will have to find another way to remove it from your pc's.

    PM me if you have any problems and post if it works and as usually I accept no responsibility for problems caused by using my MSI etc

    Google Earth License Info: See this thread

    Download Google Earth V4 Build 2722 - For details of availability PM me - MSI Build 1
    Download Google Earth V3 Build 762 - For details of availability PM me - MSI Build 1 - Original V3 Post

    If you download from me please post a message saying, just so I know how popular it is.
    If my MSI's are popular I will upload more that may be of use.

    Hmm smells like your net link mate. Just worked for me.
    Try a download manager such as Getright

    Who told ya that? they LIE! lol
    G.E. is free, for anything (expect commercial)
    See here for more info as we have discussed it all with google before. Also in that thread you will see that google actually offer schools a license of G.E. Pro edition for free
    Happy downloading

    Re: Google Earth V4 (Non-Beta) MSI here

    I've had a good look around the T & C and I can't find anything that indicates that schools should not use the software aside from the fact that the free edition is for "personal use only".

    Despite this the site positively encourages educators to use the tool so it does seem a little confusing.
