Shouldn't need to log in?

I'm not sure what is causing that error message.  But I would try going on google maps on a different browser.

I use google chrome myself.  Other popular browsers include, mozilla firefox, opera and safari.

See if any of those help.

You don't need to log in or unlock anything on Google maps, never fill in anything that says you should.

Most odd ... working for me no problems on both IE & FF, streetview as well .. just click and its there .. :(


EDIT :

Hang on ... I see something .... are you going google - click maps   OR from a  favourite ???

My guess is a favourite and you have a "full stop" too many at the end .... looking at the first post .. :)

Try

http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&tab=wl

:)
