If you change the "security.fileuri.origin_policy" pref to a traditional
value does it start working again?
http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=/mozilla/modules/libpref/src/init/all.js&rev=3.717&mark=477-478#477

Try '3' first, and if that's still not working try '4'.

Is there a way to download a small example of the problem? The maps I found
at the link below were all on-line.

The fixes should not prevent local pages from opening other pages, it just
prevents reading or writing into them. What sorts of actions are you doing?
What errors are you getting on the error console? (XBL and XSLT seem to
have problems due to this change).
