I don't have any trouble clicking on the KML button and displaying

This is the error that I always get in IE8.0. *According to the
Microsoft knowledge base for KB927917 this was a recognized bug in
prior versions of IE but was supposed to be fixed in IE8.0.

Oh well....I just use Mozilla

I can click on the KML button and save or open the .kml Google Earth
file....what doesn't work is clicking on the Google-Map (2D) radio
button to automatically display the google map in another tab.

I'm running Windows Vista Business SP2, IE 8.0, Google Earth 5.0

Removing the 3 was the problem with mine using Firefox. This is in a

This is the same answer I got from the OLC team, but this is not the
same issue. There is no 3 in the url. The issue seems to be with IE.
But I am sure there is a simple fix for it.

I always get the "3" when going through the SSA server:

I can get to the Google Maps 2d if I manually remove the 3 in Firefox,
but Opera can never see it.

Then forget IE, use FF and be happy.

FWIW I've used Opera for years, but its advantages are steadily decaying
and about now I'm being indecisive about whether to stick with it thru
V10 or become a FF fanboi. FF is pretty good these days.
