Please rephrase the question.
I can go to maps.google.com on Safari, Chrome and Firefox on my MBP and pull up maps.
There is not specific iMac browser.
But apparently that is not what you are asking.

Google Maps should work fine on whatever browser you're using on your iMac.

I mean I am there, but there is no way to search maps?

I'm not sure what you mean. Go to maps.google.com in any browser and search away.
Or are you looking for something else?

Great response, Randy, thanks. Lots of "trusted" people are espousing the

Howdy.
I think this is the standard alarmist BS that we keep reading over and
over again.
Randy S hit the nail right on the head in his response.
There is no virus listed in the article but instead government spy
agencies that "may" be trying to use Microsoft Word and java to hack
into a few Mac OS X based computers at corporations and governmental
groups in several countries.
Where's the proof?
Who got hacked?
I could certainly happen, might have happened, could have happened, and
if enough people work on hacking into Macs on into the future it could
become a bit less rare.
This is the standard BS from the Windows using community that finds it
difficult to believe that malware is very rare on any Macintosh system
and has been rare since 1984.
BTW. I recall reading of a Swedish company years ago that did things
with Macintosh servers back in the Mac OS 7, 8, and 9 days. This
Swedish company had a standing offer of a $50,000 prize for anyone who
could hack into one of their Mac servers. No one ever claimed the
prize.

Apparently it's for North America. Here's a link to the AllThingsD article, which contains a link to the original Sandvine report:

The "security through obscurity" fallacy was thoroughly debunked over a decade ago.
