448977 - google maps doesn't load with Firefox 3.0.1

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[ant p]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1

Type in an address, and the box where the map would normally appear is gray except for the message "Loading..." in the upper left corner of the box, even after the status bar in Firefox says "Done".  I had no problems previously with Firefox 2.x (upgraded to 3.0 a couple of days ago).  I have NoScript installed, but it's turned off globally right now.  Also, cookies are enabled. I verified that google maps works with IE.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to maps.google.com
2. Enter a street address
3. 
Actual Results:  
"Loading..."  forever.

Expected Results:  
A map of the area surrounding the address.

works for me with FF3.01 and SM trunk on win32.
Please run Firefox in the firefox safemode

If you have the Skype Firefox extension installed then uninstall or disable it. (bug 440194)
