Whenever I click on Browse Maps in shattered colony I receive the error message "Download Map List Failed:
HTML Status: 0
Could not access network (Security Error)"

Anyone know what's wrong and how to fix this as there are several maps that I want to play?

@george_brown It seems that this feature is no longer supported; meaning the server is most likely down. Sadly, this can happen with older games where the game dev moved on and focussed on other things...

I picked up a comment from another gamer who states that you can still copy/paste maps using the option "Map Editor" and then select "Paste Map" to enter the url of the map. He also mentioned that one must change 'sizex', 'sizey', 'startx' and 'starty' to 'sizeX', 'sizeY', 'startX' and 'startY' (with caps X and Y) before loading the map.

It may be a small consolation, but I hope it answers your question and that you can still enjoy the game this way. Sorry for being the bringer of bad news...

Thank you very much @MrDayCee. Unfortunately I only know the names of a couple of the maps I wanted to replay, no URLs to paste. I shall just have to continue playing random maps instead.

Even typing in the names in the map name box when loading a random map no longer works, as the game says it should.

@george_brown Maybe ask for links in the game comments? If there are enough players w8th maps, we can make a thread and post them there?
