I downloaded Google Earth...when I clicked on 'run" i got this message:C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Desktop\Google_Earth_BZXV.exe is not a valid Win32 application. Does this mean I can't use Google Earth???

I believe what you DLoaded is a compressed self extracting program. Double click the file and it should start the install process. It will install a desktop icon that is used to launch the program.

I wonder if you downloaded the wrong thing. You should go to http://earth.google.com/ to download it.

You don't need to use the run button to open the compressed file. I just DLed Earth a week ago and it worked just fine. My download is titled Google_Earth_BZXV.exe and it is 15,365KB. Double click the icon and get a run screen.
