FireFox 3.6.13. BING Maps are being blocked. New Problem

I am using Windows XP Pro. FireFox 3.6.13.

I am having a new problem using Bing Maps.

When I first go to the Bing Maps page, I can see the map of the U.S. as usual. When I enter the name of a single specific location (e.g. a city name or a street address), the map images will Not display. The screen is blank where I should see a map; however, the information about the location appears on the left side of my screen just the same. I noticed that the image may appear for no more than one second and then disappear. Reloading the page gives me the same result.

However, this problem does Not occur if I start from the map image of the U.S. and just zoom in on an area. The map appears normally even when I continue to zoom. Likewise, the problem does Not occur if I use Get Directions and enter a starting point and destination. The map images appear normal.

It is only a a problem when I do a search for a single specific location (e.g. city or street address).

This problem just started about two weeks ago and occurs only when using FireFox. It does Not happen when I use Internet Explorer.

Thank you.

Thanks. I looked through that material and did not find an answer to my specific issue.
