I am using firefox 3.5.11 on windows 7 home. Until a week ago, I could do a search with google maps, The map pages opens, but when I enter a destination in the search bar, I get the following message: "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML". I am able to use IE for Maps, but I would perfer to use Firefox. I have done all the trouble shooting suggested by firefox and google, but it still doesn't work.
